Hi !

I need to get the size of a file, and if this is possible, it would be great: I need a command that I can pass the filename to, and that would return the size of the file. It's not important to be in bytesm human readable or other...I just want to check if the file is empty or not!

Thanks in advance,
Chris

test -s filename # True if filename exists and has a size greater than zero.
or get size with wc or
ls -l filename | read x x x x filesize x
