It's great! I'm only a bit worried about breaking many people's scripts if we change the format to include humanized numbers by default, so I would like to see a similar patch committed but disabled by default for a while (and enabled by a command-line option like `-h'). The `-h' option seems to be the BSD equivalent of what GNU people would call `--humanized-output'. It would be nice to have vmstat and iostat display humanized numbers but let's keep the default to its traditional style and make the new output style accessible too :) _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
