Hi, The manpages for df(1), du(1) and ls(1) claim that -h (print human- readable numbers) will reduce the number of digits to three or fewer, but this isn't true. It will print numbers such as 1000K or 1010K (ofcourse, since these are slightly less than a megabyte). So the question is what to fix, the code or the manpage? OpenBSD fixed their manpage to say four, but I think fixing the code is a better solution. -Tomas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
