Hi Rob
I think you mean ‘df’. ‘du’ is disk usage. ‘df’ is disk free space. Your
favorite options apply to fd, not du.

Well, then pretend I did say “duh”
Only possible excuse is that it was late-ish when I posted. Sigh.
You can see where “du == disk usage” is the immediate knee-jerk answer
to “Command to provide disk usage”. “df == disk free” isn’t as immediately
knee-jerk obvious
Yes, “df” (and not “fd”, BTW )

Of course I see now that I screwed up too. I don’t think these options
apply to “fd”
