Rather than add more code to quite a few programs I just use a separate program since this is useful in many places. $ df | hunit Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad0s3a 99,183 66,198 25,051 73% / devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev /dev/ad0s3e 190,167 29,468 145,486 17% /var /dev/ad0s3f 61,147,922 54,629,382 1,626,708 97% /usr Granted, columns don't line up right but that too belongs in a separate program. > It is also worth noting that probably many more tools > might benefit from that feature. "netstat -i" and > "ipfw show" come to mind immediately. Which is why a separate program is nicer.
