I wrote this script because I just got irritated by the fact that, when I wanted to know the amount of disk space I had left on my Powerbook, I had to go through loads of clutter before I found the information I needed. So I wrote this very simple script and I was good to go.

This script displays this information upon execution:

Macfreak:~ Macfreak$ diskspace
Available diskspace: 15G
Available diskspace: 95G

It’s simple but effective, if you ask me. Just the info you want to know, nothing more, nothing less!
When you put this script in the directory /usr/bin/, you can execute it everywhere!

You can download this script from diskspace.
