DiskSpace

The program ds returns the 20 largest directories and files from the current directory. The output is human friendly with appropriate units. For example, the output of the src directory is

   14M ./target/debug
   14M ./target/debug/deps
    7M ./target/debug/deps/ds-6f1846660d97a074
    7M ./target/debug/ds-6f1846660d97a074
    4M ./target/debug/deps/ds-cd0cb9a5662c3402
    4M ./target/debug/ds
    4M ./target/release
    4M ./target/release/deps
    4M ./target/release/deps/ds-d307492d3cacef39
    4M ./target/release/ds
  996K ./target/debug/deps/libdiskspace-c8b9796891c5526c.rlib
  996K ./target/debug/libdiskspace.rlib
  996K ./target/debug/deps/libds-5149253a6d6a1a22.rlib
  996K ./target/debug/libds.rlib
   14K ./.git/hooks
   13K .
   12K ./.README.md.swp
    6K ./src
