No, this is a bona fide Linux question :-) it's a Webfaction account.

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 thread

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

I have files that are more than 3 GB on my system, in an ext3 filesystem.
It depends on whether the failure is
modified to use the
new interfaces and types (fpos_t and friends)
instead of just "int" to represent file sizes...

Hi All,
Can the 2GB file size limit be changed? I need to store about 10GB worth
of data in a single file, but it dies at 2GB.
TIA,
Kenny
