Dear friends,


the correct abbreviation for kilobyte is `kB', not `Kb'!  As a
consequence, in the panels you should show e.g. `12345k' instead of
`12345K'.

Another formatting bug: I see e.g. `1,234,567Kb bytes in 8 files'
which should be `1,234,567k bytes in 8 files'.

What about introducing gigabyte (correctly abbreviated to `GB')?
