2002-11-06Add support for locale-specific size indications (e.g.,Jim Meyering
thousands-separators) and for explicit size suffixes on output. (Block size): Say that: This affects display format as well as block size.

(tail invocation): 32k -> 32 KiB. (What information is listed): ls -h is now equivalent to ls --block-size=human, and ls -H is now equivalent to ls --block-size=si. Displayed file size is now always affected by --block-size.
