-z, --dir-with-slash append a slash to directories.

Hi,
I use du -ax / | sort -rn /var/tmp/du-`date --iso` to get the sorted

Unfortunately you can't see a difference between a directory and a file
in the output. It would be nice if the directories
I'm very dubious about adding this as an option.
Do you really think an option is warranted for this,
considering you can already get the desired behavior
with a small wrapper, as I demonstrated:
The wrapper is awkward, but it's better than a new option.
So probably best to do
/
291330280 /home
new:
307704984 /
291330280 /home/
This way you can see if a line is a directory or not. This is even more
important
if you want to use the output for a script.
I suggest 'du --dir-with-slash' or 'du --trailing-slash' as parameter.
