Hi,
I have a question about behavior of ls(1) with `-h' flag. It shows
like follows:
% ls -lh /
total 7666
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 4K Apr 21 2001 COPYRIGHT
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 1K May 28 15:40 bin/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512B May 28 15:51 boot/
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11B May 5 2001 compat@ -> /usr/compat
...
but, src/release/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/relnotes/common/new.sgml describes
"ls(1) now accepts a -h flag, which when combined with the -l flag,
causes file sizes to be printed with unit suffixes, such that the
number of digits printed is less than three."
I think "the number of digits printed is less than three" means that
"digits are 1 and 2, not include 3". Is this a typo? If so, apply next
patch.
# Sorry if I'm understaning.
