Awk an file size
I have been using
Code:
x=ls -la "$f" | awk '{print $5}'
The only problem is instead of protecting the file size format of ls -la which is right to left, it rearranges it and reads it left to right. Cyborg was kind enough to point out this command however and it works on the command line. Code:
ls -la | awk '{len = length($5) > len ? length($5) : len ; arr[NR] = $5 }END{ for ( a = 1; a < NR; a++ ) { printf "%"len"s\n" , arr[a]}}'
Code:
x=ls -la "$F" | awk '{len = length($5) > len ? length($5) : len ; arr[NR] = $5 }END{ for ( a = 1; a < NR; a++ ) { printf "%"len"s\n" , arr[a]}}'
