This creates a file that has the names of the duplicates found in dir==$2 then deletes them from directory $2. Be careful this script could clobber something you really need. It also DOES NOT consider links, which could be important. All in all this script is not a great idea - but I think it does what you specifed

I want to write a script that deletes files inside the dir. However, the script
should also allow the user to confirm by pressing (d) key before deleting files..
#!/bin/bash
for file in $1/*
do
size='ls -l $file | cut -f 5 -d " "'
name='ls -l $file | cut -f 9 -d " "'

I have a complex multi-stage (media conversion and formatting) build process that leaves orphan target files needing deleting automatically (i.e. by reference only to the build rules themselves, not any parallel config) upon each regular build. Since MAKE cannot do this, what can? Thanks. (4 Replies)
I am using Tbird as it came with Slackware 13.37 and everytime I send something I get a message 1 or 2 drafts deleted. Should it be doing that? If not has this been reported ? How can I find out if it was reported? I have no drafts to delete. (2 Replies)

It happens when I try to delete a file of 250MB with the command rm -r on our old Intergraph CLIX that the filename disappears while the blocks remain on the machine.

strnatcmp
STRNATCMP(3) 1 STRNATCMP(3)strnatcmp - String comparisons using a "natural order" algorithm
SYNOPSIS
int strnatcmp (string $str1, string $str2)
DESCRIPTION
This function implements a comparison algorithm that orders alphanumeric strings in the way a human being would, this is described as a
"natural ordering". Note that this comparison is case sensitive.
PARAMETERS
o $str1
- The first string.
o $str2
- The second string.
RETURN VALUES
Similar to other string comparison functions, this one returns < 0 if $str1 is less than $str2; > 0 if $str1 is greater than $str2, and 0
if they are equal.
EXAMPLES
An example of the difference between this algorithm and the regular computer string sorting algorithms (used in strcmp(3)) can be seen
below:
<?php
$arr1 = $arr2 = array("img12.png", "img10.png", "img2.png", "img1.png");
echo "Standard string comparison
";
usort($arr1, "strcmp");
print_r($arr1);
echo "
Natural order string comparison
";
usort($arr2, "strnatcmp");
print_r($arr2);
?>
The above example will output:
Standard string comparison
Array
(
[0] => img1.png
[1] => img10.png
[2] => img12.png
[3] => img2.png
)
Natural order string comparison
Array
(
[0] => img1.png
[1] => img2.png
[2] => img10.png
[3] => img12.png
)
