Subject: Converting an Integer into Human Readable String
Date: Thu, 7 Apr 2011 03:02:52 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4fa1ed35-b35b-4c8d-bfca-d7fae8da913b@glegroupsg2000goo.googlegroups.com> (raw)

I looking for the function that prints file size on the mode-line in size-indication-mode. I have searched for size-indication-mode in the source but cannot find a code-references to it. So where is the function that prints for example

22k

when file is approximately 22 kilobytes big?

What about difference between
- kilobytes (kB), 1000 bytes, and
- kibibytes (KiB), 1024 bytes, as defined at

Shouldn't Emacs support both?

This is of course not that hard to write but reinvent the wheel?
