Exemples de lancement du script

Notez qu’il faut lancer en utilisant “source“

• Supprimer les plus vieux fichiers du dossier courant (./) tant qu’il prend plus de 96Mo :
  source ./clean_custom.sh --path ./ -l 9600000
• Supprimer les plus vieux fichiers du dossier temporaire (/tmp/) tant qu’il prend plus de 2Go :
  source ./clean_custom.sh --path /tmp/ -l 2000000000
