quota

To assess exactly how much diskspace your account comes with, use the
quota command with the -v option. This command displays your disk
``usage'', ``quota'', ``limit'' and ``timeleft'' among other things.
Your ``usage'' defines the amount of diskspace your files cur- rently
occupy.  Your ``quota'' defines your total alloted diskspace which you
can exceed slightly. However, you will receive warning messages until
you reduce your diskspace ``usage'' to below your ``quota''.  Your
``limit'' defines the maximum allotment of diskspace you can use, but
it cannot be exceeded.  When you have reached your ``limit'', you will
be unable to create new files.  Your ``timeleft'' defines the number
of days you have to reduce your diskspace ``usage'.  The -v flag
causes quota to report the user's quotas even if they have not been
exceeded.

For example:

   world%  quota -v freduser

   Disk quotas for freduser (uid 1000):

   Filesystem   usage  quota  limit  timeleft  files quota limit  timeleft

   /home/ie      154   1024   1536              28      0      0      



If a -n flag is supplied, quota will only display user's quotas for local
file systems.  Remotely mounted file systems are ignored.
