This is why the Athena quota command exists, by the way -- to give filesytem-independant
quota information.

But why is it really necessary to abort netscape when there is no disk space?
What actually happens?

Surely it should continue to run and should be allowed to do so? (No doubt it
doesn't, otherwise you wouldn't have done this, but it still *should* ;-)).
