Split input file based on size of file
|

| Hello,
Can some one help in creating an output files based on the file size of
the individual files:
I have an input file with complete path of the existing files in a file
system as below:
Input.txt
--------------
/data/volume/admin1/file1.txt
/data/volume/admin1/file2.pdf
/data/volume/admin2/file3.cfg
/data/volume/admin3/file4.cfg
I would like to split the input files based on the file size of the
individual files.
/data/volume/admin1/file1.txt (file size 50 MB)
/data/volume/admin1/file2.pdf (file size 35 MB)
/data/volume/admin2/file3.cfg (file size 75 MB)
/data/volume/admin3/file4.cfg file size 20 MB)
Say (if it exceeds 100 MB size, create a new output file)
Output1.txt
-----------------
/data/volume/admin1/file1.txt
/data/volume/admin1/file2.pdf
Output2.txt
/data/volume/admin2/file3.cfg
/data/volume/admin3/file4.cfg
Thanks in advance.

This is an OS-specific question rather than an awk language one. You'd
be better posting to whatever NG is specific to your OS, e.g.
comp.unix.shell if you're on UNIX.

you aren't clear enough, but I'll give you some clues
1-file sizes
ls -la|awk '{sum = sum + $5} END {print sum}'

man split
