粘贴不是必需的。只要files.txt包含一个或多个有效文件名，就可以执行以下操作:

<files.txt xargs stat -c %s | paste -sd+ | bc

如果没有文件，Cat不需要插入0。如果没有管道，也许在脚本中更方便，您可以使用:

(xargs -a files.txt stat -c %s || echo 0) | paste -sd+ | bc

TMTWWTDI: Perl有一个文件大小操作符(-s)

perl -lne '$t+=-s;END{print $t}' files.txt

# 1.  set numeric format to eliminate rounding errors
# 1.1 had to reset numeric format from 12.2f to .2f 95/05/16
#     when a computed number is assigned to a variable ( $x = (-1 * $x) )
#     it causes $x to use the OFMT so -1.23 = "________-1.23" vs "-1.23"
#     and that causes my #5 (negative check) to not work correctly because
#     the index returns a number >1 and to the neg neg than becomes a positive
#     this only occurs if the number happened to b a "(" neg number
# 2.  find the field we want to add up (comes from the shell or defaults
#     to the last field "NF") in the file
# 3.  check for a dollar sign ($) in the number - if there get rid of it
#     so we may add it correctly - $12 $1$2 $1$2$ $$1$$2$$ all = 12
# 4.  check for a comma (,) in the number - if there get rid of it so we
#     may add it correctly - 1,2 12, 1,,2 1,,2,, all = 12   (,12=0)
# 5.  check for negative numbers
# 6.  if x is a negative number in the form 999- "make" it a recognized
#     number like -999 - if x is a negative number like -999 already
#     the test fails (y is not >1) and this "true" negative is not made

python3 -c"import os; print(sum(os.path.getsize(f) for f in open('files.txt').read().split()))"

或者，如果你只是想把这些数字加起来，可以输入:

python3 -c"import sys; print(sum(int(x) for x in sys.stdin))"

我发现自己会用jq来做这样的事情，即使不使用JSON:

$ echo -e '1\n2\n3' | jq --slurp add
6

它已经成为我最近编写的几乎每个脚本的标准依赖项。

而不是使用cut从ls -l的输出中获取文件大小，你可以直接使用:

$ cat files.txt | xargs ls -l | awk '{total += $5} END {print "Total:", total, "bytes"}'

Awk将“$5”解释为第五列。这是ls -l中的列，它提供了文件大小。
