Is there an easy way to change wakaba, so that it displays the imagesize as KB and not B?

2 Name: Anonymous 2005-09-05 22:20 ID:xI2Vw3Wx [Del]

replacing all "<var $size> B" in futaba_style.pl with "<var $size/1024> KB" should do the trick

Maybe this should go into the stock distro. Less clutter.

that worked. but now i have like 8 digits after comma. (322.4212342 KB) An easy way to fix this?

var int($size/1024)

I presume you don't care about it being really accurate.

The whole thing with /1024 confuses me as there's this massive confusion between 1000^x and 1024^x that I still don't quite understand. (Hard drive is 1000 and windows counts by 1024 which makes your HDD seem smaller than it is.)

Actually, no, hard drives only count in 1000:s because that makes them seem bigger. Traditionally storage space is always counted in 1024:s.

1000 = KB
1024 = KiB

If you wanted to be some sort of SI nazi, that'd be "kB". That would make 1024 B "1 kiB", which is even more annoying than what you suggested. This whole "kibibytes" things is horrendously retarded, and nobody really cares. Just drop it.

This isn't something I see as worth adding into Wakaba just because one person requested it. Besides, it's easy enough to do by yourself.
