There are two corrections to the case materials I need to note, I
don't believe it effects the vote or need a separate case for
discussion. If anyone disagrees, please speak up now.
1. -U flag
This was accidentally omitted from the case template, but was included
in the mail discussions (where I sort the flags by new, aliases,
etc.). It is a new flag. The description is:
-U Do not sort the output. Output is in directory order.
2. --block-size. A code reviewer noticed that the suffixes supported
aren't correctly reflected in the case materials. The corrected
information (which matches GNU ls behavior) is:
--block-size=NN. Use NN sized blocks. NN can be suffixed with
[kKmMgGtTpPeEzZyY]B? (in regex format -- and yes, GNU ls really can
use yottabyte sized blocks if you want). The optional 'B' (only
uppercase) signifies powers of 10 instead of 2 (e.g. KB is 1000, while
K is 1024). This is not the same as the -h option in du(1m) or
df(1m), nor is i compatible with standard SI notations, but is
compatible with GNU ls.
