>Because -b includes --apparent-size. >Try again with -B1 instead of -b. You're right, -B1 gives a count which is visually more consistent with the "human-readable" total: basil ben # du -sB1 ~zygoat/Maildir 289280 /home/zygoat/Maildir basil ben # du -sb ~zygoat/Maildir 103316 /home/zygoat/Maildir basil ben # du -sh ~zygoat/Maildir 283K /home/zygoat/Maildir However, neither -B1 nor --apparent-size are mentioned in my man page at all. I had no idea such options existed. Weird. Moreover, what is the correct count? 289280 bytes? What is the 103316 value in the above, then? -b -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
