Hi,

Is there any command to get file size in MB in Ubuntu?

This probably isn't in the correct section, but from the command line, you could try:

ls -sh filename

The -s is size, the -h is human readable.

Most commonly used options of ls:

ls -lh --> Permissions and file size
ls -lah --> Permissions and file size on all files
ls -ltrh --> Permissions and file size, sorted on access time (newest is last)
ls -ld --> Permissions, only directories

And, if you want to get not only file, but directory sizes as well, you have to execute:



du -sh directory ENTER
