The ls -s argument is documented as such:
ls --help output:
-s, --size print the size of each file, in blocks
LS(1) man page:
-s, --size
print the size of each file, in blocks
This leads one to expect some sort of relationship between the size
colum in ls -l output, perhaps with rounding to the nearest block, but
this is not the case.
I know the info is preferred, but would it be okay to simply
s/blocks/allocated blocks/? (or "used blocks", or something along those
lines?) I think it should be possible to make this a bit clearer in a
way that has an acceptable impact on the length of --help.
