Unix command reminders

I can never remember the exact syntax for a bunch of Unix commands; it seems reasonable to document some of them here.

To find large files and list them in an easy to read way

 find / -type f -size +500000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $9 ": " $5 }'

To create a tar archive

  tar cvf <filename> <archive contents>

To list processes with the userids they run under (and other info)

  ps -eo euser,ruser,suser,fuser,f,comm,label
