how do I find Zero length files??? 2

[TheBOFH]

I have a load of zero length files around in my file system.
I want to first find them, then delete them.

This almost works:
ll -R /moose |grep ' 0 '|awk '{print $9}'|xargs -n 1 -t -i rm -i {}

The problem is that the full path is not returned from the awk, only the filename. So the delete fails...

Does anyone have any ideas how to make this work or be able to point me in the right direction.

Many Thanks
Colin

Be careful removing zero byte files, especially if you are logged in as root. These files are used as flags by the operating system, removing them can have serious consequences.
