Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Help with File Monitoring Script Post 302605793 by methyl on Thursday 8th of March 2012 01:40:38 PM

One of the many methods of finding the top 10 largest files in a directory is as follows:
Code:
find "${dir}" -type f -exec ls -lad {} \; | sort -n -r +4 | head -10
# If you have knowledge of the size of files you could only look at big files
#  -size +1000000c

Imho the smallest unit of storage returned by "du" (one block) is too large for this exercise on files. However my method is totally useless on systems which return file sizes in "human readable" format.
