Question formatting space usage/available reports

I'm really, really new to writing scripts, but have been asked to generate a report that will show available space for a disk, space used by particular subdirectories on the disk and totals. I can get the information I need with du and df and output it to a text file but I'm stumped as to how to format it.

The output I'm looking for should be similar to the attached text file (done because when I previewed my posting I lost all the formatting).

-and then repeating for each Database SID and each disk. Any tips will be greatly appreciated -better yet, if anybody has a script that does something similar that I could borrow and modify I'm certain it would improve your karma Smilie
Code:
Disk xxxx

Total Available xxxxx

Used:

   <SID1>/archivelogs  xxxxx
         /database     xxxxx
         /exports      xxxxx
         /hot backup   xxxxx
         /cold backup  xxxxx
    Total Used <SID1>  xxxxx
