Hi:
I can generate the following output from find,
> cd /usr/ports/distfiles
> find . -type f -ls | awk '{print $7,$11}' -
731400 ./bison-1.34.tar.gz
20288222 ./emacs-21.2.tar.gz
226817 ./procmail-3.22.tar.gz
497341 ./john-1.6.tar.gz
497716 ./epic4/epic4-1.0.1.tar.bz2
216319 ./epic4/epic4pre2-help.tar.gz
521458 ./links-0.97pre7.tar.gz
154700 ./micq-0.4.6.p1.tgz
428767 ./cvsup-snap-16.1f.tar.gz
121835 ./pidentd-2.8.5.tar.gz
.

.
I'd like some pointers on splitting this list
into smaller lists after the sum of file sizes
reaches a fixed threshold (say ~100MB for copying
to zip disks).
Thanks for any help or pointers.
