Which linux executable deals with reporting disk space usage, free disk space and anything to do with hard drive space management?

Something like this -

PHP Code:



$ df -h 
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on 
devtmpfs        7.9G     0  7.9G   0% /dev 
tmpfs           7.9G  1.9M  7.9G   1% /dev/shm 
tmpfs           7.9G  8.7M  7.9G   1% /run 
tmpfs           7.9G     0  7.9G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup 
/dev/dm-0        77G   21G   53G  28% / 
tmpfs           7.9G  2.8M  7.9G   1% /tmp 
/dev/sda1       477M  113M  340M  25% /boot 
/dev/dm-2       374G  131G  224G  37% /home
