[Tutor] win32file module documentation

[Michael Long]

I would like to use win32file.GetDiskFreeSpace() but do not seem to be
able find any documention on this module. I do not have win32file.py
installed on my machine only win32file.pyd. Is the source available or
at least some documentation explaining input and return values?

Thanks,
Mike

.pyd files are DLL's for Python and probably written in C.

On WinNT, I am using the ActiveState Python distribution. The Help
(Help/Python Manuals/Contents/Python On Windows Extensions\
/PythonWin32Extensions Help/Modules/win32file)
showed this:

win32file.GetDiskFreeSpace
(int, int, int, int) = GetDiskFreeSpace(rootPathName)

Determines the free space on a device.


Parameters

rootPathName : PyUnicode

address of root path

Return Value
The result is a tuple of integers representing (sectors per cluster,
bytes per sector, number of free clusters, total number of clusters)
