Jayjan jay!! Don't use find with exec unless you have to do stuff inside the exec!

Here's what you can do: find all the dirs in depth-first order, then feed each dir into du.
Here's what we're doing: The find gets all the directories (your target dir is $DIR) and prints them out one line at a time. The awk command then prints out each directory name followed by its depth -- determined by the number of times split found the / character in the input line. We separate the fields by tabs to prevent long and unusual dir names from getting clobbered by the next steps. Next, sort orders the list by directory depth. Now that the list is ordered, we dont need the depth information anymore, so the cut command strips it (you can also do this with awk or sed). Finally, the resulting list is fed into xargs, which prints out and executes the command "du -sh" on each directory, one directory at a time.
The output is then sent through your $PAGER, which ought to be defined. If not, use "less" or "more" whichever works for you.
This way, you can find a particularly large directory without waiting forever for the job to finish.

tk_choosedirectory
tk_chooseDirectory(n) Tk Built-In Commands tk_chooseDirectory(n)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
tk_chooseDirectory - pops up a dialog box for the user to select a directory.
SYNOPSIS
tk_chooseDirectory ?option value ...?
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The procedure tk_chooseDirectory pops up a dialog box for the user to select a directory. The following option-value pairs are possible as
command line arguments:
-initialdir dirname
Specifies that the directories in directory should be displayed when the dialog pops up. If this parameter is not specified, then
the directories in the current working directory are displayed. If the parameter specifies a relative path, the return value will
convert the relative path to an absolute path.
-mustexist boolean
Specifies whether the user may specify non-existent directories. If this parameter is true, then the user may only select directo-
ries that already exist. The default value is false.
-parent window
Makes window the logical parent of the dialog. The dialog is displayed on top of its parent window. On Mac OS X, this turns the file
dialog into a sheet attached to the parent window.
-title titleString
Specifies a string to display as the title of the dialog box. If this option is not specified, then a default title will be dis-
played.
EXAMPLE
set dir [tk_chooseDirectory
-initialdir ~ -title "Choose a directory"]
if {$dir eq ""} {
label .l -text "No directory selected"
} else {
label .l -text "Selected $dir"
}
