help with finding specific files
before i get to it, i would like to say this is the greatest unix site ive ever seen, and im glad to see so many people are out there to help. thanks
well, im trying to make myself a script where i can specify a directory and a file size so that my script will show me any files larger than the size i specify.
im using the find command, like so:
find $1 -type f -size +$2k -print
i know its not right because ive already run it and recieved errors and i pretty much modified that line from the find man page. any help or pointers would be appreciated
thanks

XPATH(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation XPATH(1p)
NAME
xpath - a script to query XPath statements in XML documents.
SYNOPSIS
xpath [-s suffix] [-p prefix] [-q] -e query [-e query] ... [file] ...
DESCRIPTION
xpath uses the XML::XPath perl module to make XPath queries to any XML document. The XML::XPath module aims to comply exactly to the XPath
specification at "http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath" and yet allows extensions to be added in the form of functions.
The script takes any number of XPath pointers and tries to apply them to each XML document given on the command line. If no file arguments
are given, the query is done using "STDIN" as an XML document.
When multiple queries exist, the result of the last query is used as context for the next query and only the result of the last one is
output. The context of the first query is always the root of the current document.
OPTIONS
-q
Be quiet. Output only errors (and no separator) on stderr.
-s suffix
Place "suffix" at the end of each entry. Default is a linefeed.
-p prefix
Place "prefix" preceding each entry. Default is nothing.
