Using "du" on a file is overkill. (Unless you have a lot of sparse files in play, uncommon.) Try: find . -type f -ls | sort -rn -k 7 | sed 30q "head" is for the weak! Note: sort's "-h" option (needed for du's -h output) is a GNU-specific and _recent_ addition to GNU sort. Not very portable - your scripts will break on many platforms.
