I'm having no success trying to get ls to print file sizes, using the -M
flag.
-M Modifies the -l and -s options, causing the sizes or block counts
reported to be separated with commas (or a locale appropriate
separator) resulting in a more readable output. Overrides -h;
does not override -k.
* $ ls -lM *.c-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5535 Aug 7 2003
cmp.c-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 18251 May 26 21:21 ls.c-rw-r--r-- 1 root
wheel 1839 Sep 5 2016 main.c-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13806 May 26
21:52 print.c-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5090 Aug 29 2011 util.c*
I would expect to see something like this:
*-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5,535 Aug 7 2003 cmp.c-rw-r--r-- 1 root
wheel 18,251 May 26 21:21 ls.c*
etc.
Thanks for any hints.
