[Micah Cowan]

Update of bug #22765 (project wget):

Follow-up Comment #1:

I'm not sure I agree that this is a problem. K, k, KB, Kb, kb are all often
used to refer to the same thing.

I agree that consistency is nice; but in the context of the progress bar,
horizontal space is at a premium. I'd prefer to avoid KB where K is more than
clear enough.

Note that, now that there's an IEC standard for such things, there's a case
to be made that Wget should be using the suffix "Ki" (for "kibibyte") in all
its current cases. I'm not convinced that that would result in improved
understanding of Wget messages, though.

(To original reporter, if phe reads this:) Please feel free to bring it up on
the list for discussion, or to add further commentary here.
