I'd make that statement stronger.

It's C++ in this case. (bleh ...)

I suspect that to get exactly what you want, you will need to write a

Well, it seems to inquire the info by filesystem specific means.

I have a small addition to this excellent message.
There is very widespread mixup of the terms "loopback"

I'm sure you've realised by now, your requirement is to extract

I can't grok this one: shouldn't gparted report on it? Or you don't
expect the free space to be there?
