That works but if there are many files of 99 MB, it won't show any of them. Using ls with the right options will list all files sorted by size within directories: ls -RSl | less But how can we get ls to show the full path for every filename? There must be a trick to it that I don't know. If we can get the full path, you can do this: ls -Rl | sort -rn -k5,5 | less That "sort" is sorting by file size with largest on top. > Konqueror (in KDE) has a View/View Mode/File Size View that shows a > graphical view. Kind of weird looking, but fun. That sounds interesting. Mike
