In their own words

dust

dust is a free Rust command-line tool for finding where disk space is used. It lays out large files and subdirectories as a tree, with colored bars showing disk usage and hierarchy. Filters can include or exclude files using regular expressions and set a minimum file size. Output options let you show files or directories, group by file type, and choose size units. A screen-reader option removes bars and symbols and adds a depth-level column. dust runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, with release packages listed for each, including architecture-specific builds. The README lists installation routes including Cargo, Homebrew, DNF, Snap, mise, Pacstall, conda-forge, deb-get, x-cmd, and Scoop. The Snap package can access files only in /home. The project is licensed under Apache-2.0; its v1.2.6 release page displays SHA-256 checksums for downloads. GitHub Issues and Discussions are available for support.

NO$GBA

NO$GBA is freeware that emulates Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, and DSi systems on Windows. Downloads include separate Windows debug and gaming versions plus a DOS gaming version. The debugger provides Code, Data, Stack, and Registers windows; its Data view can display and modify memory dumps. It accepts.ELF, DWARF2, and.SYM debug information and shows execution timing and profiling details. Conditional breakpoints, tracing, and optional warnings for suspicious actions such as ROM writes or invalid memory access support investigation. For emulation, NO$GBA can link up to four GBAs for multiplayer and save or restore complete hardware state to a file. Its upload function runs programs up to 256K in attached GBAs’ Work RAM through an xboo cable. DSi emulation requires several system files users may not have. The downloads page lists version 3.06 dated 14 Apr 2025. The Free plan costs nothing, and the maker is Martin Korth.
