The diskSpace function returns the free space of the drive the app is

get the avialable size of the destination volume.
Actually, the docs say that it gets the free space of where the
defaultFolder is, so I assume if you point the defaultFolder to the
other drive and ask for diskSpace you'll get the right values.
Or so I had thought, but I can't seem to get that to work - here's a test:
on mouseUp
put the defaultFolder into tDir
set the defaultfolder to "/Volumes/util/"
if the result is not empty then
answer the result
exit to top
end if
get the diskspace
put it &cr& the defaultFolder
end mouseUp
When I run this I get the amount of free space on the drive the app is
running from, even though the defaultFolder shows the path to the other
volume as I'd expect.
If someone will verify that I'll file a bug report.
In the meantime, anyone have the shell calls handy to get this info?
