I know it starts off with the ls -l command but I'm not sur how you get the total bytes and total files thingy near the bottem. Thx

Try checking out the

du

command (I think :)

du foldername

Type man du for more info..

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That looks to me that is produced by a script that combines the output of both 'ls' and 'file' commands (or maybe there is a new version of ls which does this, but I don't think so).

dirty coded such script could be something like this:

#! /bin/bash
# produces Big_Baller's desired output.

DIR=${1:-./}

LS_L=$(/bin/ls -l $DIR)

FILES=$(/bin/ls $DIR)

# first output:

echo "${LS_L}"

# second output (total bytes in listing):

echo "${LS_L}" | awk '{suma=suma + $5} END{print "Total bytes: "suma}'

# third output (file types):

DIRECTORIES=0

TOTAL_FILES=0

SCRIPTS=0

for file in $FILES;

do

if [ -d $file ]; then

DIRECTORIES=$(( ++DIRECTORIES ))

else

TOTAL_FILES=$(( ++TOTAL_FILES ))

# file types (add as many as you like):

case "$(file $file)" in

*script*) SCRIPTS=$(( ++SCRIPTS ));;

*) :;;

esac

fi

done

printf "Total files: %5d\n" $TOTAL_FILES

printf "Directories: %5d\n" $DIRECTORIES

printf "And scripts: %5d\n" $SCRIPTS

(*)Sorry if mubcolorize script's output is a bit odd, ;) Just trying to put some color note here!

that script produces this output:

...the same improved to output all the file types:

#! /bin/bash
# produces Big_Ballers desired output.

DIR=${@:-./}

# first output:

LS_L=$(/bin/ls -l $DIR)

echo "$LS_L"

# second output (total bytes in listing):

printf "\nTotal bytes: %5d\n" $(echo "${LS_L}"|awk '{X=X+$5}END{print X}')

# third output (file types):

DIRECTORIES=0 TOTAL_FILES=0 SCRIPTS=0

FILES=$(/bin/ls $DIR)

for file in $FILES;

do

if [ -d $file ]; then

DIRECTORIES=$(( ++DIRECTORIES ))

else

TOTAL_FILES=$(( ++TOTAL_FILES ))

fi

done

FINAL_OUTPUT="Total files: %5d\nDirectories: %5d\n"

printf "$FINAL_OUTPUT" $TOTAL_FILES $DIRECTORIES

# improved filetype stuff

echo

echo "File types found:"

file $DIR/* | sed 's/.*:[ ]*//' |\

awk -F ':' '{type[$NF]++} END{

for (i in type)

printf("%d file(s) found is(are) \"%s\"\n", type, i)| "sort"

}' | grep -v directory

so now the output becomes:

The output becomes interesting, maybe if I develop the script it will be helpfull for me to mantain my ~aru folder which has loads of old files many empty, broken or who knows :P

Amazing, absolutely amazing how you can just dream up a script in such a short time :o

And don't go telling me its easy. :D

doesn't give a total though.

and doesn't give filetype info either, which was the interesting part of Big_Baller's output ;)

And don't go telling me its easy. :)

Believe me, it is :P ... but thanks for those nice words :headbang:

aru · November 13, 2004

I've edited the script to make it a bit more useful (though it is not yet finished):

#! /bin/bash
# produces Big_Ballers desired output.
DIR=${@:-./}
# first output:
LS_L=$(/bin/ls -l $DIR)
echo "$LS_L"
# second output (total bytes in listing):
printf "\nTotal bytes: %5d\n" $(echo "${LS_L}"|awk '{X=X+$5}END{print X}')
# third output (file types):
DIRECTORIES=0 TOTAL_FILES=0 SCRIPTS=0
FILES=$(/bin/ls $DIR)
REAL_FILES="" # added <--
for file in $FILES;
do
   if [ -d $file ]; then
       DIRECTORIES=$(( ++DIRECTORIES ))
   else
       TOTAL_FILES=$(( ++TOTAL_FILES ))
       REAL_FILES="${REAL_FILES} $DIR/$file" # added <--
   fi
done
FINAL_OUTPUT="Total files: %5d\nDirectories: %5d\n"
printf "$FINAL_OUTPUT" $TOTAL_FILES $DIRECTORIES
                                                                                                                                    
# improved filetype stuff # edited <--
echo
echo "File types found:"
file $REAL_FILES | sed 's/: */:/g' |\
awk -F ':' '{files[$NF]=(files[$NF]"\t"$1"\n"); type[$NF]++} END{
   for (i in type) {
           printf("%d file(s) found is(are) \"%s\"\n", type[i], i)
           print files[i] }
   }'

the parts I've changed are marked with '<--'

Now the output is (srtipped some parts):
