pebbles - Circular Treemaps Disk Usage Utility

Overview:

I've lately revived my old circular treemaps code and ported it to Java, in order to create a demo of the idea which people can try out more easily. The long-term plan is to create a version of pebbles which itegrates into the KDE.

General information on the history of treemaps are available at Ben Shneiderman's treemap page
