I knew this; I just assumed it was well known. In the same way you could
use "BLOCKSIZE=1K df" instead of "df -k". But you don't because there's
a convenient command option. Similarly, I'd rather use "df -m". I
think it's a low impact solution that will scale to "df -g" in the
future. Personally, I think "df -h" as proposed is not useful, but
I've given up arguing against additional options that other people like.
And to Thomas: I've used dfspace before on ISC Unix, but never really
liked it. I prefer df to do what I want. Am I greedy? :-)
Stephen.
