NAME
     quot -- display total block usage per user for a file system

SYNOPSIS
     quot [-ncf] [filesystem ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The quot command displays the total count of blocks owned by a user for the filesystem filesystem.  If
     the filesystem option filesystem is not specified, the file systems listed in /etc/fstab are used.  The
     following options are available:

     -c      Display information on file size and block usage. The file sizes are listed in the first col-umn, column,
             umn, the second column contains a count of how many files of that size were found and the third
             column lists the cumulative block usage for the displayed size and all smaller files.

     -f      For each user, the number of files (inodes) owned is displayed in addition to the block usage.

     -n      A list sorted by block usage is displayed.  This is the result of quot executing the following
             command:

                   ncheck filesystem | sort +0n | quot -n filesystem
