How to see the list of files which exists with nonzero bytes
Hi,

I would like to see the file list which contains the data.

Ex : - When I enter the "ls -ltr" command it will show all the files which are exists in the directory, But I want only those files list which are non zero byte by using only ls command.

I knew that I can write a script with "-s" option through script but I want the list through ls command...

For better understanding I am posting with example : -

$ls -ltr
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 0 Mar 2 10:27 a.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 0 Mar 2 10:27 b.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 50 Mar 2 10:27 c.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 0 Mar 2 10:27 d.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 200 Mar 2 11:24 e.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 0 Mar 4 03:14 f.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 100 Mar 4 03:14 g.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 0 Mar 4 03:14 h.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 userID MyGroup 0 Mar 4 03:14 i.txt

I want to see only c.txt, e.txt and g.txt from the above list, not all.

Please advice me how to solve this.
