Without an argument, the DRIVE command retrieves a list of available drive letters, separated by blanks:
var := DRIVE [ /Silent ]
Supplied with a drive letter as its argument, the DRIVE command will return the disk label of the respective drive:
var := DRIVE driveLetter [ sizeUnit ] [ /Silent ]
If sizeUnit is specified, the size of the drive, the free space and the space available to the user are also returned in the format drivelabel ; size freeall freeuser
- driveLetter
- The drive letter to query (e.g. A) or a file path (e.g. "c:\files\test.txt") whose first letter will be interpreted as a drive letter.
- sizeUnit
- The possible values are
B(byte),KB(kilobyte),MB(megabyte), andGB(gigabyte).
- /Silent
- If specified, errors will generate warning messages rather than error messages. See The Silent Flag for details.
See the script file drive_example.sts for a working example.
