This distribution contains the modules Filesys::Statfs, Filesys::Statvfs, and Filesys::Df.

DESCRIPTION
Filesys::Statvfs provides an interface between
Perl and the statvfs() system call.

SYNOPSIS Filesys::Statvfs

use Filesys::Statvfs;

        my($bsize, $frsize, $blocks, $bfree, $bavail,
           $files, $ffree, $favail, $fsid, $basetype, $flag,
           $namemax, $fstr) = statvfs("/tmp");



Filesys::Statfs provides an interface between
Perl and the statfs() system call. This module
will only install if you are using a system that
doesn't have statvfs(). 

SYNOPSIS Filesys::Statfs

use Filesys::Statfs;

	  my($ftype, $bsize, $blocks, $bfree, $files,
             $ffree, $bavail) = statfs("/tmp");



Filesys::Df uses Filesys::Statvfs or
Filesys::Statfs to obtain filesystem statistics,
then creates additional filesystem information
such as percent full, user and superuser
differentials, etc.

Filesys::Df will also let you specify the block
size for the values you wish to see. The default
block size output is 1024 bytes per block.

SYNOPSIS Filesys::Df

use Filesys::Df;

        my $ref = df("/tmp");  # Default block size of 1024 bytes.
                               # You can specify a different block
                               # as a second argument.

        print"Percent Full:       $ref->{per}\n";
        print"Total Blocks:       $ref->{blocks}\n";
        print"Blocks Available:   $ref->{bavail}\n";
        print"Blocks Used:        $ref->{used}\n";
        print"Inode Percent full: $ref->{fper}\n";
        print"Inodes Free:        $ref->{favail}\n";
        print"Inodes Used:        $ref->{fused}\n";
        
        print"Total Bytes", ($ref->{blocks} * 1024), "\n";
        
        # These are just some of the keys that are available.
        # See the documentation for the others.



INSTALL
TO INSTALL RUN:
	
	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test
	make install

For this module to install and work properly, your
system will need to support either the statvfs() or
statfs() system call.

A good way to tell if your system supports them is to
to look for the sys/statvfs.h or sys/statfs.h header in your
include directory (Usually /usr/include/).

If there is an error during the 'make', it is possible
that your system does not support statvfs() or statfs().
Another possible reason may be that the statvfs structure defined
in statvfs.h does not contain one or more of the fields that are
defined in Statvfs.xs. This also applies to statfs().

During the 'make test', test.pl will use statvfs() or statfs()
to stat the root directory "/". If it fails it will report
an error, otherwise it will report all the standard
fields in the structure. The 'make test' will then proceed
to test the df() call.

Once installed, run 'perldoc Filesys::Df' for more information. 

If you have any problems or questions please email
me at IGuthrie@aol.com with "Filesys Module" in
the subject line. Please include the module version,
and if you are using statvfs() or statfs() on your
system.
