FWIW, I agree whole-heartedly. I think -k output is much more
readable than the above, because you have an immediate "visual"
overview of the sizes.
What I'd like to have would be an option that inserts thousands
separators ("," or whatever your locale settings say) into the
default display:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a 105,893 5,117 97,600 5% /foo
/dev/da0s1e 139,172 261 138,911 1% /bar
/dev/da0s1d 17,641,178 15,931,150 1,710,028 91% /bar/baz
/dev/da0s1f 262,133 167,310 86,960 66% /mumble
/dev/da0s1g 17,641,178 16,462,303 1,178,875 94% /laber
/dev/da0s1h 8,782,097 4,605,191 4,176,906 53% /fasel
mfs:33 297,663 2 297,661 0% /tmp
procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc
This would be esay to implement and improves readability a lot,
IMO.
I'd send-pr a patch, if there's a chance that it will be
comitted (I'd suggest "-s" for "separators"). Or does this
start to get feeping creaturism...?

Oliver
