Hi Professor, I was wondering if you could clarify the behavior for ls
-l when printing the total size of the files. The man page says "A
total sum for all the file sizes is output on a line before the long
listing." for both the -l (ell) and -s options. Should this be in bytes
and is this line modified by the -h and -k flags? Also, should this
total include the size of any files other than regular files? Thanks!
Justin
