Package: cruft
Version: 0.9.6-0.4
Severity: wishlist

It would be useful some tool for inspecting reports. They are often huge
and difficult to read.

For example:
Perhaps could be easy to make program based on dialog (ncurses) that
reads a report file, builds a memory tree representation of the files and dirs 
appearing 
on the report and add a property to each one of them telling de reason
for appearing in the report.

Once the memory representation is built, the dialog interface could
allow user to navigate throug the built in memory filesystem.

It would be useful showing the amount of unexplained or missing files on
each dir tree, as well as its combined size. The size could be
calculated just before needed for showing as it could take a while do
it for the entire report.

With this program users could navigate throug the filesystem viewing the
problems and understanding de magnitude of the problem by reading de
total size of the unexplained files on each directory.
