Getting the total file size for certain files per directory

Hi,

I am trying to get the total file size for certain files per directory.

I am using

find /DirectoryPath -name '*.dta' -exec ls -l {} \; | awk '{ print $NF ": " $5 }' > /users/cergun/My\ Documents/dtafiles.txt

but this lists all the files in the directories.

I need the total per directory for all dta files recursively.

path/directory1 : total size of dta files for directory1
path/directory2 : total size of dta files for directory2

Any suggestions?

Hi, I'm newbie to Unix. I'd like to count the total size of those files in my directory by date. For example, files on this period 05/01/08 - 05/31/08. If possible can we count by byte instead of kb. if I use $ du - ks , it will add up all files in the dir. thanks, Helen (5 Replies)

The second line contains a grand total number of transaction files, followed by the number of directory bytes this represents.

Finally, if it appears that transaction files might be missing or orphaned, returns the number of missing or excess files. WARNINGS
Use of commands, including is discouraged because they are targeted for removal from HP-UX. Use ftp(1) or rcp(1) instead. assumes that each directory entry takes 24 bytes. SEE ALSO
