¿Cómo enumero los archivos por tamaño?

How do I list files by size?

To list all files and sort them by size, use the -S option. By default, it displays output in descending order (biggest to smallest in size). You can output the file sizes in human-readable format by adding the -h option as shown. And to sort in reverse order, add the -r flag as follows.

Some widely used file comparison programs are diff, cmp, FileMerge, WinMerge, Beyond Compare, and File Compare. Many text editors and word processors perform file comparison to highlight the changes to a document.

diff can not only compare two files, it can, by using the -r option, walk entire directory trees, recursively checking differences between subdirectories and files that occur at comparable points in each tree. $ man diff -r –recursive Recursively compare any subdirectories found. …

The -S option is the key, telling the ls command to sort the file listing by size. The -h option tells ls to make the output human readable, and -r tells it to reverse the output, so in this case the largest files are shown at the end of the output.
