perhaps I just need to learn the right switches to apply to sort on the
other side of a pipe, but I have often wanted to sort the results of du
in descending order and have it get it how to parse the -s(ummary) -h
(uman) readable output.
So instead of:
$ du -sh /var/log/*
28K /var/log/apt
tag 9187 notabug
thanks

An option to exclude them from the count as well would be convenient.

option to sort by size... wow, that would be really nice.
So nice I wrote this script to do it...
