disk_survey
Updated: Oct6,2019

Summarize in a simple way the contenets of local subdirectories.


disk_survey --help  

Usage: disk_survey list.1 Y 
arg1 - file list directories to survey
arg2 - debug flag (Y/N) 

Ways of making the input list of subdirectories, as well as examples of how to do this sort of thing using the unix commands "ls" and "du" are shown in the webdoc describing disk_list_locdirs.

I show in another example of using "ls" to summarize the structure of a directory tree. Note that the output from this sort of example can be huge for some directory trees (especially mine!), but they can be useful. The purpose of this tool (disk_survey) is to provide a more simplified summary of the size and structure of a directory tree. I show in another example of using "tree". I show in more examples of using "du".
