-name "*" is redundant I think. > this is not working because ls can't find folders with spaces in there name, > so I am using a pipe and sed, to make it comfortable: This is a very dangerous way to try to solve this problem.

Do you mean the total size in blocks of the contents of each directory owned by a user? Or the size in blocks occupied by each directory (i.e. list of files) itself? I'm not sure I clearly understand what you wanted to do, so it is hard for me to be sure this is the correct answer, but this is a reasonable guess I think: $ find glpk -depth -type d -user youngman -print0 | du -s --files0-from=- 1936 glpk/glpk-4.8/doc 12 glpk/glpk-4.8/examples/.deps 1756 glpk/glpk-4.8/examples 356 glpk/glpk-4.8/include 176 glpk/glpk-4.8/src/.deps 3528 glpk/glpk-4.8/src 8 glpk/glpk-4.8/sysdep/gnu 12 glpk/glpk-4.8/sysdep/w32 24 glpk/glpk-4.8/sysdep 7880 glpk/glpk-4.8 960 glpk/tarfile 8844 glpk > Thanks for your help. > > Regards, > Peter Major > > > _______________________________________________ > Bug-coreutils mailing list > Bug-coreutils@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils > _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
