Description Vilain Mamuth 2010-04-12 12:08:55 UTC 
imagine the following directory structure

dir1
    subdir1
    subdir2
    file1
    file2
    file3

currently baobab shows size information like this

dir1           100GB
   subdir1     10GB
   subdir2     20GB

when we have few directories it is simple to know that we have 70GB used by files but not when there's a lot of folders and files.

the idea is to add an entry named like "files" that you can expand and then show files with their size

in fact, we'll have

-dir1           100GB
   +subdir1     10GB
   +subdir2     20GB
   -<files>     70GB
      file1     3GB
      file2     2GB
      ...
