Newbie question:
How can I get the total size, in K, of all files in a directory that
match a pattern?
For example, I have a dir with ~5000 files, I would like to know the
total size of the ~1000 files matching *.txt.
On RHEL and bash, if it matters...
Thanks,
Kent

More than you asked for, but here's a command that reports
total space occupied by all files with names ending in .jpg,
recursively from the current directory (but not crossing mount
points) and which is also a gratuitous example of the Process
Substitution facility mentioned in a previous

Ooops - that --files0-from= option is apparently
new enough (my du version is 5.97) that it's probably
not widely available. My home system has it, but my

Hello, world!
GNHLUG has an Internet server (it runs this list, amongst other
things). It has a pair of 18 GB disks (mirrored). That is kind of
small, by today's standards -- especially if we want to start doing
things like hosting videos of meetings. It was pointed out that we
might have

The one wrinkle is that they must be 3.5-inch, 1/3-height, SCSI,
80-pin SCA (single connector attachment) disks. That's all that will
fit the 1U server we have.

their size is also nuthin' to write home about...

If you say so. I've been getting SCA on most of my x86 servers for
something close to a decade now. :) I suppose if you compare vs the
entire population of x86 boxes, including $200 Wal-Mart specials,

Datacenter space varies wildly, but use $20/sqft/mo. A typical

footprint, but allowing for aisleways, etc).
So, $240/mo for the space.
A 42U cabinet will generally hold about 35U of

OK. I've never seen a single datacenter where you were paying for
space above anything else. Even if that's the unit of measure being
sold.
