    My original question was:

    I haven't yet written a shell script to do this, but from the several
    suggestions I received, it looks like there isn't a quick a simple way to do
    this. The solution will only be to parse the response from the commands
    showfdmn or df with awk and single out the part I need. However I wouldn't
    bother using df because I haven't seen it to be very acurate and is most of
    the time wrong in reporting a file system's used space, it never agrees with
    du and not even with showfdmn.
    So I will try using showfdmn.
