ha
already done
I even used -E
the next release will have
-c, --check
-C, --silent-check
-E, --codeset
ast sort has a few other field encoding extensions that I hope do
not get stomped on
-h, --scaled|human-readable
Compare numbers scaled with IEEE 1541-2002 suffixes.
-p, --bcd|packed-decimal
Compare packed decimal (bcd) numbers with trailing sign.
-Z, --zd|zoned-decimal
Compare zoned decimal (ZD) numbers with embedded trailing sign.
and for fixed records
-R, --record|recfmt=format
you can probably tell that we have been dealing with mainframe data
I really like the -h,--scaled extension
(ast du, ls, sort, printf %#i %#d, probably some I forgot)
try this with ast-open commands
du -h | sort -r -h | head -10
