Fix for: ls-command: how to display the file size in megabytes?

Low Risk

Maybe is sufficient for you: -h When used with the -l option, use unit suffixes: Byte, Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte, Terabyte and Petabyte in order to reduce the number of digits to three or less using base 2 for sizes. General advice: Use to read the manual/help of a certain command, e.g. here .
