It generates the number at the end, and it sounds like the result is
something else.

Literally just the word none.
Seems like the ls output is different from expected for some reason. If
you type something like this:
ls -l apps/lang/s*
what is the output of that? It should create a list like this:
-rw-r--r-- 1 Name None 3127 Feb 24 10:14 apps/lang/slovenscina.lng
-rw-r--r-- 1 Name None 9349 Feb 24 10:14 apps/lang/svenska.lng
the output i got from entering that command is as follows
-rw-r--r-- 1 alex wallis None 54724 Feb 24 11:23 apps/lang/slovenscina.lang
-rw-r--r-- 1 alex wallis None 183896 Feb 24 11:23 apps/lang/svenska.lang
but in your case, there seem to be an extra space column before the size.
Maybe your user name ("Name" in the above) contains a space? Don't know if
that's possible though... If it is, this should work as expected:
My user name does have a space in it and so far as i no i can't change that
in cygwin, so I have a work around for dealing with that.
I simply get cygwin to put my rb code into the folder that is just called
home in its usual rockbox folder.
I don't no why this would have started being a problem now though as up til
now I have had no problems.
