Thanks for the replies Ron, Mike and others. I guess I understand use
of od now (although that du puzzle is still with me).
From the top of the man page DESCRIPTION:
"Summarize disk usage of each FILE, recursively for directories."
The 2nd argument:
--apparent-size
print apparent sizes, rather than disk usage; although
the apparent size is usually smaller, it may be larger
due to holes in (`sparse') files, internal fragmenta-
tion, indirect blocks, and the like
What about that puzzles you?
