How do I sort by human readable sizes numerically?
- by UAdapter
for example I have command that shows how much space folder takes
du folder | sort -n
it works great, however I would like to have human readable form
du -h folder
however if I do that than I cannot sort it as numeric.
How to join du folder and du -h folder to see output sorted as du folder, but with first column from du -h folder
P.S. this is just an example. this technique might be very useful for me (if its possible)
