How to determine directory size ?

I have several ways to display directory and file listings but none 
total the directory size. I would like to know the size before 
attempting to copy to a CD for back up. xcdroast tells me after I've 
entered all the data but by that time I may have too much or less than 
optimum.

How can I get the size in advance?
