WHAT IS GTKDISKFREE :

GtkDiskFree is a program which shows free space on your mounted filesystems.
It shows the filesystem type too and other informations which will be added
very soon I hope. Now Gtkdiskfree can mount and umount different filesystems.
GtkDiskFree is writed with the GTK+ library (www.gtk.org)

HOW TO DO IT :

It's very easy in fact...

Gtkdiskfree find the differents partitions by the "getmntent" (mntent.h) 
function, and he asks the system by the "statfs" (vfs.h) function to known
the free space.
To mount and umount the differents filesystem Gtkdiskfree use the i/o of
the mount command which are written in a tempory file (/tmp/gtkdiskfree.

READ the INSTALL file to have more details about GtkDiskFree installation

SUPPORTED OS :

Currently, 2 operating systems are completly supported,
Linux and Solaris. GtkDiskFree needs peoples to test
it on AIX, FreeBSD and NetBSD (should work but not tested).
