SYNTAX
dusort [ -f delim ] [ -t threshold ] [ file ]
DESCRIPTION
The dusort program is an output filter for du. It reads a
disk usage report from file, or the standard input if no
file is specified on the command line, and produces a
listing to the standard output. The listing will show the
contents of the directories sorted in descending order,
and indented under their parent directory. The input data
lines must have at least two fields: the disk usage value
in the first field of the line and the pathname in the
last field of the line. There may be additional fields
between these two; they will be ignored. By default, the
fields are delimited by whitespace.
The following options are available.
-f delim Changes the field delimiter. The field delim
iter will be a sequence of one or more of the
characters specified by the delim argument.
-t threshold
Only those entries whose disk usage meets or
exceeds the threshold are displayed, and all
others are discarded. Normally, all entries
are printed.

BUGS
A more precise explanation of what this utility does is as
follows: it reads the entire du report into memory,
arranges it into a tree, sorts all of the siblings in
order of disk usage, and then performs a depth-first
traversal to display the results.
The indentation in the report can get a little wierd if
the input data was generated by running du with multiple
starting directories.
