Antagony · 04-11-2003, 11:45 AM

At my university we get a linux account with 75 megs of disk space. I was looking through the "df" manpage and I realize I need to use some other command to figure out how much of my quota I have left to use.

Anyone know how I could do this? Perhaps I need to write a script?

Or as an alternative, how could I manipulate the "ls" command to show me how much disk space I've used under my home directory?

It's some flavor of Redhat 7 if that helps any. Thanks for reading my dumb post.
