At the risk of embarrassing myself: The ":s" verb for easily viewing the size of directories / files, the overview of multiple directories at once, the gitignore handling, at a glance. There might be more, but I would have to spend more time with it.

disclaimer: my definition of "devops" is sitting in a remote terminal for where I run docker and chasing down which files take up all my precious space, or not remembering where I put something, which makes the tree overview very useful. I know I could achieve this via many other means also (and did before Broot), but Broot is also very pretty, so I quite like that, too :)

It's the keybind "S" with nnn (or "A" for apparent usage). You can also use the same option ("-S") to open nnn in du mode.

> the overview of multiple directories at once

I explained the nnn design strategy in my other response

> the gitignore handling

This can be added but it changes the current generic way of handling directory entries

> There might be more, but I would have to spend more time with it

That would actually be a constructive data to improve nnn as well.

Thanks for the notes!

No worries. I wish I was able to give better feedback, but I am nowhere near as expert a user as many others surely are.

I like how 'on the ball' you are with this though, it's that kind of passion that makes projects like nnn so strong!

Yep, great ideas are always welcome! There's always room for improvement.
