diskspace usage info

Anybody can help me? I need to know a specified folder diskspace usage, that's how much bytes that folder and its files/folders below spend on my storage.
Thanks

Check out either of the following commands:
df or du
( man df or man du )

df -k is probably the most useful ( I think) - if you are looking for answers in terms of Kbytes. Also useful in that it provides the % of capacity used so you know exactly where you stand at any given point in time.
