Hi, all.

How to archive a directory (with many levels of sub directories) without
those files whose sizes are larger than, say, 200Mbyte? Thanks.


star -c f=tar.out maxsize=200m .

Or you can use the standard find command to identify
the files you want and have tar use the resulting
list:

find . -size -400000 | tar -cf tar.out -T -

Study the man page for find for details on how
to get very fine control over the file selection.

Cheers,
