Damon,

First, if you're combining grep with cut or awk, you should just be using
awk. If you're using awk without a search, you should just be using cut. I
didn't find any Useless Use of Cat, so you're ok there. :)

To fix the display:

# Ignore the header; join any other lines by tab
DF=`df -T "$MNTP" | tail -n +2 | tr "\012" "\011" | awk '{print $6}'`

and

echo "$VG $VGsize $LV $LVsize $MNTP Use% $DF"

If you want it to say "Use%", just print it, don't worry about grepping it
from df. I think that should set you straight.
