An unofficial modification of WinDirStat. Tremendous performance improvements.

This repository is used to be an ugly, hacky, bundle of crap - but now it's just a bundle of crap.

I've been working on some interesting static analysis stuff lately, so development has slowed down :(

In the mean time, I'm planning to cut out some of the MFC code (replaced with the raw Windows API that MFC poorly wraps) ...and then switch over to VS 2015.

A quick guide to the structure of this repository:

• Reference Code
  • Code that I referenced/studied early in development
  • None of it compiles as part of altWinDirStat
• WinDirStat
  • My branch, this contains the Visual Studio 2013 .sln file
  • This is where the source code is!
  • Has it's own, more detailed README.md
• Development Screenshots
  • Interesting things I saw while working on altWinDirStat
• filesystem-docs-n-stuff
  • All sorts of information on NTFS and NTFS internals
  • LOADS of good stuff in here!
  • Also has mirrors of any documentation that I mention in the source code
• stress-progs
  • A native application that I've built to stress test WinDirStat by creating an arbitrary number of randomly named files
  • Has it's own .sln file, and is developed concurrently (albeit sporadically)
• stress-scripts
  • A naive version of the aforementioned stress testing utility, written in Python
  • Turned out to be extremely slow, caused by a massive text-encoding bottleneck in Python
• (many other files, not yet sorted)
