SortSize Description

An easy to use script that allows you to calculate which files from a given directory fit best into the specified size. SortSize is a small Python script that calculates which files from a given directory fit best into the specified size.Say, for example, that you want to burn a DVD with files from a directory, but you don’t know which ones to include so that the DVD has as less wasted space as possible. You run sortsize, it tries out all file combinations and tells you which one leaves the least wasted space.The simplest way to use it is to open a command prompt, cd to the directory with your files and run it with the size as an argument. By the way, having Psyco installed can speed this script up by ten times or so.For example, a typical command line would be sortsize.py 1d, which would calculate the size of one DVD. SortSize also allows you to use 3c, 2d, 10m, etc. Here are some key features of "SortSize": Valid size units: · k – kilobyte · m – megabyte · g – gigabyte · c – CD size (736294912 bytes) · d – DVD size (4700000000 bytes) · Command-line options (you can see these by running sortsize.py --help).
