When I right click on a directory with windows Explorer, a window is

How do I get the same information via Python ?
I've looked at os.stat but
os.stat(r'C:\temp')[os.path.stat.ST_SIZE]
only returns the size of a "plain file" :(
It's really a shame that windows doesn't have a built-in tool to show
you a tree of subdirectories, and how much space is occupied by each
subdirectory.
I guess I need to roll my own- once I know what the underlying call is
to get the size of each directory

You have to walk the directory and accumulate the size. Even Explorer
does that (you can see if you do it on a really large directory).
