Disk Usage on a Remote host: Enable X11 Forwarding for ssh and run x11 application

Lately I was in the of analyze analyze disk space on a remote server, when you are on *nix you can do such things quite easliy.
ssh into your remote host and Enable ForwardX11

1. For  enabling it for sshd (ssh deamon):
   •   sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config 
   • and modify X11Forwarding no to X11Forwarding yes
2. Restart sshd:
   • sudo /etc/init.d/ssh 
3. Exit from current session
4. ssh into remote host again with -X flag
   • ssh -X username@hostname
5. Run your application in my case $ baobab

Have Look at JDiskReport for a cross platform app.
For Macs Edit  sshd_config  located in /etc

1. sudo vim /etc/sshd_config 
2. ssh to your mac
3. Run the app $ java -jar jdiskreport-1.3.2.jar

IRB.conf[:AUTO_INDENT] = true
IRB.conf[:USE_READLINE] = true
IRB.conf[:LOAD_MODULES] = [] unless IRB.conf.key?(:LOAD_MODULES)
unless IRB.conf[:LOAD_MODULES].include?('irb/completion')
IRB.conf[:LOAD_MODULES] << 'irb/completion'
end

type

:wq

Thats it on irb prompt use tab for auto completion
