Lsd: FR: show fraction in file sizes only for values less than 100

[sklages]

From a certain size on the fraction is not that important anymore when viewed in default mode (which is the equivalent to ls' human-readable).

So maybe values less than 100 should be displayed with a fraction, equal/larger values as integer.

But those sizes should be displayed always as a number with fraction:

.rw-r--r-- me user 2020-04-04 12:36:29 5.9 MB  IMG_20200308_162055.jpg
.rw-r--r-- me user 2020-04-04 12:36:33   6 MB  IMG_20200308_162058.jpg

-> better to see 6.0 MB instead of integer value.

I would be happy to implement this if nobody else has picked it up yet.

Nobody has picked it up yet. Feel free to take it up :)

My bad, I just realized that this would deviate from how ls does it and we would like to keep the behaviour somewhat consistent to ls.

• GNU ls: 4.0 is diplayed as 4.0. Not as integer.
• GNU ls: values between 10 and 1000 are displayed as integer. Not as fraction.

Still I think that values should be displayed as the same type, 4.1=4.1 and 4=4.0.
Also I think that fractions are just important for smaller values, here/now below 10.

But just my 2p :-)

confirm in ubuntu and macOS, thanks for the detail!
