Hi there,

You delete the files that have not been accessed in 2 days or so easily by using the following command:
Code:
find /tmp/ -atime +1 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f

/tmp directory could be used by many applications. You may try the below command to list down the files used by processes currently:
Code:
lsof | grep "/tmp"

The files that are not being accessed currently, you may safely remove them. Let us know if this helps.Smilie

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
