How to find the list of 5 largest file in current directory?
Hello,
How to find the list of 5 largest(size wise) file in current directory?i tried using
Code:
ls -l | sort -t " " -r +5 -6 -n | head -5
but this is not giving correct output as ls -l command gives 1 extra line of output that is how many total files are there!so by running the above command i get that also in the output also there are directories and even though its size is displaying 0 but that also is coming in output. Thanks in advance!
I was hoping to get some assistance with this C program I am working on. The goal is to find the largest file in the current directory and then display this filename along with the filesize. What I have so far will display all the files in the current directory. But, how do I deal with "grabbing"... (1 Reply)

What is the correct command for finding and displaying the largest file on the system?
I don't know how to specify "largest" with "find", and pipe that to something that will display the file contents. Or should I be using cat, more, less, ls, or something else? (4 Replies)

I would need a command for finding first 15000 of the file names whose 25th postion is 5 in the current directory alone.

Of course the above command also searches in the sub directories... (3 Replies)

acctcms
acctcms(1M)acctcms(1M)NAME
acctcms - command summary from per-process accounting records
SYNOPSIS
[options] files
DESCRIPTION
reads one or more files, normally in the form described in acct(4). It adds all records for processes that executed identically-named com-
mands, sorts them, and writes them to the standard output, normally using an internal summary format.
Options
recognizes the following options:
Print output in
ASCII rather than in the internal summary format. The output includes command name, number of times executed, total kcore-
minutes, total CPU minutes, total real minutes, mean size (in K), mean CPU minutes per invocation, ``hog factor'', charac-
ters transferred, and blocks read and written, as in acctcom(1M). Output is normally sorted by total kcore-minutes.
Sort by total
CPU time, rather than total kcore-minutes.
Combine all commands invoked only once under
Sort by number of command invocations.
Any file names encountered hereafter are already in internal summary format.
Process all records as total accounting records.
The default internal summary format splits each field into prime- and non-prime-time parts. This option combines the prime
and non-prime time parts into a single field that is the total of both, and provides upward compatibility with old (i.e.,
UNIX System V) style internal summary format records.
The following options can be used only with the option.
Output a prime-time-only command summary.
Output a non-prime- (offshift) time only command summary.
When and are used together, a combination prime and non-prime time report is produced. All the output summaries are total usage except
number of times executed, CPU minutes, and real minutes which are split into prime and non-prime.
EXAMPLES
A typical sequence for performing daily command accounting and for maintaining a running total is:
WARNINGS
Unpredictable output results if is used on new-style internal-summary-format files, or if it is not used with old style internal summary
format files.
