du

Hi,

Try this one,


Code:
cd dir;
ls -ltr|awk -v l=2 '/^d/{c++;a[c]=$9;}END{for(i=c-l+1;i<=c;i++){print a[i];}}'|xargs -I '{}' du -sh {}

You can specify the n number of latest files which you want in variable l.

Cheers,
RangaSmilie

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
