Is there a PPC version?
a second for the request for a PPC/Universal version. Thanks!
trips!
Me too. Please?
Please a PPC version!!
Or alternatively, the source code??? thanks!!
Yeah, will do, just on a business trip and have the source code on my desktop, not my laptop. So I won't be able to do it until Monday, and I hadn't realized that it wasn't a universal build.
You're awesome, Pierce! Thanks!
Great program, I've already done some cleanup.
But.
The program shows me the details of 12.5GB of my Time Machine volume, and then displays 91.5GB as "Misc used space."
Any idea what's going on there? I'd really, I think, like to see what's happening in the 90+ gigs.
thanks!1

It's just a hack, that's what's going on.
I just mark all the files used more then once as file size zero. So the misc used space is the space taken up by regular TM backups.
For that reason, its worth scanning again periodically to see if something else shows up as backups fall through the 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week cycles.
Ahh, so if I understand, this quite useful hack only displays the unique files in a TM volume? That in itself is useful.
Are you aware of any techniques for viewing the space used by files stored "more than once?"
Hmm, maybe some options, (I know you're busy, just thinking outloud), that instead of marking files used more than once as zero, be able to specify, used twice, three times, etc?
anyway, useful and fun tool, thanks!
Ok, the version up there is now universal.
As for counting the number of times a file has been used, the problem is that GrandPerspective uses the Mac File interfaces to get info about a file. So it doesn't have access to that info, just a bit about whether a file is a hard link or not.
Thanks for the universal build. Don't forget to update your web page (in view of the many requests!) to say that you've done so.
