48 .Sh DESCRIPTION
49 The
50 .Nm
51 utility displays the file system block usage for each file argument
52 and for each directory in the file hierarchy rooted in each directory
53 argument.
54 If no file is specified, the block usage of the hierarchy rooted in
55 the current directory is displayed.
56 .Pp
57 The options are as follows:
58 .Bl -tag -width Ds
59 .It Fl H
60 Symbolic links on the command line are followed.
61 (Symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal are not followed.)
62 .It Fl L
63 All symbolic links are followed.
64 .It Fl P
65 No symbolic links are followed.
66 .It Fl a
67 Display an entry for each file in the file hierarchy.
68 .It Fl k
69 By default,
70 .Nm
71 displays the number of blocks as returned by the
72 .Xr stat 2
73 system call, i.e. 512-byte blocks.
74 If the
75 .Fl k
76 flag is specified, the number displayed is the number of 1024-byte
77 blocks.
78 Partial numbers of blocks are rounded up.
79 .It Fl c
80 Display the grand total after all the arguments have been processed.
81 .It Fl r
82 Generate warning messages about directories that cannot be read.
83 This is the default behaviour.
84 .It Fl s
85 Display only the grand total for the specified files.
86 .It Fl x
87 Filesystem mount points are not traversed.
88 .El
89 .Pp
90 .Nm
91 counts the storage used by symbolic links and not the files they
92 reference unless the
93 .Fl H
94 or
95 .Fl L
96 option is specified.
97 If either the
98 .Fl H
99 or
100 .Fl L
101 options are specified, storage used by any symbolic links which are
102 followed is not counted or displayed.
103 The
104 .Fl H ,
105 .Fl L
106 and
107 .Fl P
108 options override each other and the command's actions are determined
109 by the last one specified.
110 .Pp
111 Files having multiple hard links are counted (and displayed) a single
112 time per
113 .Nm
114 execution.
115 .Sh ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
116 .Bl -tag -width BLOCKSIZE
117 .It Ev BLOCKSIZE
118 If the environment variable
119 .Ev BLOCKSIZE
120 is set, and the
121 .Fl k
122 option is not specified, the block counts will be displayed in units of that
123 size block.
