Remove documentation + for obsolescent constructs MD, --kilobytes, -m or --megabytes. + + * src/dd.c (usage, parse_integer): Prefer K to k for 1024. + * src/shred.c (usage, main): Likewise. + + * src/shred.c (xstrtoumax): If there is no number but there + is a valid suffix, assume 1. "MB" now means decimal, "MiB" binary. + Accept 'K' as well as 'k'. + + * src/dd.c (usage): MD -> MB for decimal. + + * src/df.c (BLOCK_SIZE_OPTION): Remove; no longer needed now that + we have 'B'. + (long_options, usage, main): Add -B. + (usage): Deprecate --kilobytes, -m, --megabytes. + Document size suffixes. + * src/du.c: Likewise. + * src/ls.c (usage): Deprecate --kilobytes.
