Package: coreutils Version: 5.2.1-2 I'm looking into using stat for determining available diskspace, however, this proves difficult or badly documented.
$ stat --help (...) Valid format sequences for file systems: %a Free blocks available to non-superuser (...) %s Optimal transfer block size $ 'Optimal transfer block size', I have the suspection that %s IS the blocksize of the filesystem, which should be used in a number of other parameters in order to translate number of blocks into number of bytes. Is that correct? If so, please document this properly with %s, 'optimal transfer' is a bit a vague term. If this is untrue, what %-something printf item will print the actual block size, what is shows when you do a simple stat -f? --Jeroen -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.7 Locale: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.23-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- no debconf information -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
