QUOT(8)			    System Manager's Manual		       QUOT(8)

NAME
       quot -- display disk space occupied by each user

SYNOPSIS
       quot [-cfknv] [-a | filesystem ...]

DESCRIPTION
       The  quot utility is used to gather statistics about the	disk usage for
       each local user.

       The following options are available:

       -a      Include statistics for all mounted file systems.

       -c      Display three columns containing	number	of  blocks  per	 file,
	       number of files in this category, and aggregate total of	blocks
	       in files	with this or lower size.

       -f      For each	user, display count of files and space occupied.

       -k      Force  the  numbers  to be reported in kilobyte counts.	By de-
	       fault, all sizes	are reported in	512-byte block counts.

       -n      Given a list of inodes (plus some optional data on  each	 line)
	       in  the standard	input, for each	file print out the owner (plus
	       the remainder of	the input line).  This is  traditionally  used
	       in the pipe:

		     ls	-i | sed -e 's,^  *,,' | sort -k 1n | quot -n filesystem

	       to get a	report of files	and their owners.

       -v      In  addition to the default output, display the number of files
	       not accessed within 30, 60 and 90 days.

ENVIRONMENT
       BLOCKSIZE  If the environment variable BLOCKSIZE	is set,	and the	-k op-
		  tion is not specified, the block counts will be displayed in
		  units	of that	size block.

SEE ALSO
       df(1), quota(1),	getmntinfo(3), fstab(5), mount(8)

HISTORY
       This implementation of quot is by Wolfgang Solfrank / TooLs GmbH.

BUGS
       ncheck (which would be a	lot more useful	than  ls  -i  in  the  example
       above) does not exist in	FreeBSD.
