-@itemx --files0-from=@var{FILE}
-@opindex --files0-from=@var{FILE}
-@cindex including files from @command{du}
-Rather than processing files named on the command line, process those
-named in file @var{FILE}; each name is terminated by a null byte.
-This is useful with the @option{--total} (@option{-c}) option when
-the list of file names is so long that it may exceed a command line
-length limitation.
-In such cases, running @command{du} via @command{xargs} is undesirable
-because it splits the list into pieces and makes @command{du} print a
-total for each sublist rather than for the entire list.
-One way to produce a list of null-byte-terminated file names is with @sc{gnu}
-@command{find}, using its @option{-print0} predicate.
-Do not specify any @var{FILE} on the command line when using this option.
