the unused man page says "--max-depth=N"
amazing information there :^)
Only the understandable part, which for me is most of it, since as usual for man pages, examples are absent.
# du --max-depth=1K -k | sort -rn 4216219 . 3221524 ./usr 677585 ./var 140599 ./lib
again from the hard to read man pages: -k like --block-size=1K --max-depth=N print the total for a directory (or file, with --all) only if it is N or fewer levels below the command line argument; --max-depth=0 is the same as --summarize ./user has 3221524 1k blocks or 3221524 k or 3.22154gb man sort yealds -r, --reverse reverse the result of comparisons -n, --numeric-sort compare according to string numerical value like biggest numbers first but again, no examples, but for such simple things are examples really necessary? If you find they would enhance the man pages sufficiently, why don't you experiment with the parameters and concoct examples and update the man pages? -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
