fmt_human(3)		    Library Functions Manual		    fmt_human(3)

NAME
     fmt_human - write a human readable ASCII representation of a long integer

SYNTAX
     #include <libowfat/fmt.h>

     size_t fmt_human(char *dest,unsigned long long source);

DESCRIPTION
     fmt_human	writes	a  human readable ASCII representation of source to dest
     and returns the number of bytes written.  The  result  resembles  the  file
     size  output of "ls -H"; 1000 becomes "1.0k", 1000000 becomes "1.0M" and so
     on for "G" and "T".

     fmt_human does not append \0.

     If dest equals FMT_LEN (i.e. is zero),  fmt_human	returns  the  number  of
     bytes it would have written.

     The  output of fmt_human can not exceed 11 (assuming unsigned long long has
     64 bits).
