Re: size suffix w x

2010-06-27 Thread Eitan Adler
 I have a script I am hacking. The code has a check for a size suffix.
 I know what m|mb|g|gb|k|kb| and the upper case version of the same letters
 mean. But the code also has an w|x size options.
 Is this a valid size type and what does it mean?

Are you looking at the expand_number(3) function? It is very hard to
help you unless you give more details.

Is it at all explicated within the script, or is this a silly
game?  I would guess w=word and x=no-affix, so
either bit or byte.  That is if I were scribing the accursed
thing.

Or w=wotan meaning the greatest possible in every
dimension, and x=meaning pornography.
