I don't know of anything builtin or in the official package repo to do this. Your best short term bet is probably using the kluge you came up with: shelling out to the "df" command and parsing the output. However, it sounds like this functionality is something that could eventually be abstracted into a module using native system libraries and FFI. It would mostly be a research project to find out which system libraries one would need. If I had more time right now, I'd work on it myself to get more hands on racket experience. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
