[ale] dush

[Lightner, Jeff]

Nice - I hadn't realized they'd added -h to sort in later coreutils versions.

Unfortunately it isn't in the RHEL5/CentOS5 version of sort from coreutils 5.97 (it is in RHEL6 coreutils 8.4 though) so this wouldn't work there.  You'd have to do "du -sk | sort -n" which is the way I learned it in UNIX years ago.

Here is a nice little alias to show you the  biggest files/subdirs in your current working directory:

alias dush='/usr/bin/du -sh * .[!.]* | sort -h | tail'
