hey!
Ive got a bunch of files on my server that id like to delete, they are all in a recursive set of sub's

The only thing that they have in commen is the filesize (0kb) - anyone here knows if its possible to delete (or rename) all files (recursive) with that filesize?

if so, whats the command?

thanks a lot!
