libbytesize1 - 2.11-1 main

Many projects need to work with sizes in bytes (be it sizes of storage
space, memory, ...) and all of them need to deal with the same issues
like:
.
* How to get a human-readable string for the given size?
* How to store the given size so that no significant information is lost?
* How to handle sizes bigger than MAXUINT64?
* How to interpret sizes entered by users according to their locale and
typing conventions?
* How to deal with the decimal/binary units (MB vs. MiB) ambiguity?
.
This library aims to be as much generally usable as possible, small, fast and
be easily interfaced from other languages.
