Dear all
Is there some utility (console or otherwise) that could indicate me
NOT the output/input read/write and miscellanea, but simply which
files are currently being written to the disk. Sometimes my browser
(Opera) downloads some temporary files, and usually have a difficult
time locating them.
Any ideas? Regards
$ lsof | grep opera
However, these files get written so quickly that I'd bet it won't be
much use except when downloading *big* file.
Alternatively, try something like:
$ du -a .opera > opera.scratch.files.`date +"%s"`.txt
<do some stuff in Opera>
$ du -a .opera > opera.scratch.files.`date +"%s"`.txt
$ diff opera.scratch.files.*.txt
