LARGES FILES MORE FLAVORS

Recently a single line 
script was posted to UGU 
to list the largest files
in a filesystem in order 
of descending size.  
The script worked as posted
on AIX but required tweaking 
for SCO OSR5 and UW7. 
Here 'tis for your 
edification and enjoyment:

OSR5:
find $1 -type f  -size +2048 -xdev -exec ls -s {} | /bin/sort -brut " " 
        
UW7:
find $1 -type f  -size +2048 -xdev -exec ls -s {} + | /bin/sort -nr

I placed the script in 
/usr/local/bin and removed 
the pipe to "more" in the 
published version to allow 
redirection to a file. I 
also arbitrarily added the 
"-size +2048" to the find 
command to limit the list 
to files of 1 Mb or larger; 
you may modify or remove as 
desired.

Thank you,
Lucky Leavell
