hi.
here is what i want to do...
i'd like to retrieve (recursively) directory information, specifically
size. when i execute the program output should be something like this...
C:\dir\ 1000000
C:\dir\1\ 303252
C:\dir\2\ 39124
C:\dir\2\a\ 19241242
etc...
also, i'd like to be able to pass the starting directory.
i am a perl nobody and i found one script on "the net" but it looks a
bit complicated. the script i found is 76 lines long and it doesn't even
get the directory size. i imagine that perl could do what i want in just
a few lines.
any ready made scripts out there?
thanks,
chris.
