My original posting is below. The overwhelming response was to use the find
command with the -size switch somewhat as follows:
find . -size +2000
which will find all files greater than 2000 blocks (1024000 bytes). By
looking at the man pages, you can see how to have the find command look for
size in bytes or blocks.
Thank you very much everyone!
