Availabe diskspace
If you want to ge the available diskspace you can use the following function. on mouseUp answer info "Show diskspace" with "GB" or "MB" or "KB" put it into theUnits get humanReadableDiskSpace (theUnits) ask info "Availabe diskspace" with it end mouseUp function humanReadableDiskSpace theUnits beep set the caseSensitive to false switch char 1 of theUnits case "k" return the diskSpace div 1024 & " kb" break case "m" return the diskSpace div (1024^2) & " mb" break case "g" return the diskSpace div (1024^3) & " gb" break default return the diskSpace break end switch end humanReadableDiskSpace theUnits What is the proper way to get the diskspace from a external drive?
