[etc] The following is a rework of your script. Since my quota(1) reports in the format: Your disk usage is approximately 788,480 bytes; your disk quota is 2,048,000 bytes. and my du reports in 1k block sizes, there are minor cosmetic changes, besides the eval and proper quoting tricks. If your quota(1) supports the '-qv' option (see man excerpts following script), the first assignment can be replaced w/the second commented one. eval QUOTA=`quota | awk 'BEGIN { FS=" " } { quot=$5 } END { print quot }' | sed 's/,//g'` #eval QUOTA=`quota -qv` du -s $HOME | awk 'BEGIN { FS=" " } { printf "\nDiskspace\n"; printf "---------\n"; used=$1; free='$QUOTA'/1024-used } END { printf "Used : %d kb. (%d%%)\n",used,used*100/('$QUOTA'/1024) ; if (free>=0) printf "Free : %d kb.\n\n",free else printf "Too much : %d kb.\n\n",-free } ' QUOTA(1) Georgia Institute of Technology QUOTA(1) NAME quota - display PRISM disk storage usage and maximum limit SYNOPSIS quota [ -q ] [ -u ] [ -v ] DESCRIPTION [...] OPTIONS -q Display only maximum limit. -u Display only usage. -v Display usage and/or maximum limit value(s) without title(s) and without comma formatting the numeric value(s). This is useful for manipulating the value(s) in a shell script. By default, display usage and then maximum limit, both with titles and comma formatting the numeric values. EXAMPLES Here's how to display your disk storage usage and maximum limit: {hydra:gtuser:22} quota Your disk usage is approximately 1,237,792 bytes; your disk quota is 2,048,000 bytes. {hydra:gtuser:23} Here's how to get your maximum limit into a shell variable (assuming your shell is ksh): {hydra:gtuser:24} quota=`quota -qv` {hydra:gtuser:25} echo $quota 2048000 {hydra:gtuser:26} [...] -- BURNS,JIM Georgia Institute of Technology, Box 30178, Atlanta Georgia, 30332 uucp: ...!{decvax,hplabs,ncar,purdue,rutgers}!gatech!prism!gt0178a Internet: gt0178a@prism.gatech.edu
