I want to know if there is any unix command to view the size of the file?

eg.
i have a directory letter
in this i have file a,b,c,d,e.

i just want to know the size of file d and not any other.

2 
ls -l d

Isolating just the file size is a bit of a challenge. The output from ls also depends on your locale etc; there really ought to be a separate command for getting a file's size in computer-friendly form.

thanks for your reply

Can you provide some pointer to that challenge :o.

check if this works for you:

ls -l  filename | awk '{print $5}'

also check that stat command
