What command combo at terminal will output a list of directories with human-readable sizes?
In order to see a list of folders with sizes you can use the du command.

To make the sizes human readable use the -h option

To make sum the size of child folders use the -s option (may take some time to run depending on the contents).


du -hs *



Here is an (uninteresting) example of the output.
