This wouldn't be core functionality so if we were to do that it would be better in numfmt I think. For example you can get ls -lh functionality now with numfmt like: \ls -l | numfmt --header --field=5 --to=si Looking at my numfmt TODO here I see this pertinent item: Have numfmt --format='%f ' put a space between number and auto units cheers, Pádraig
