If you have the MKS Toolkit (which I highly recommend), you can use the
find command.  A line something like:

	find c: -size +200 -print

will give you all files > 200 blocks (1 block = 512 bytes).  You could also
mix in the ls (directory list command) with the -s option:

	find c: -exec ls -s {} ; | sort

which would give you the block size followed by the file name for all files
sorted by ascending block size.  Hope this helps!
