[Rd] Byte size in human readable format

[Gregor Gorjanc]

Dear R-core,

My friend and I have written a function to convert byte size into human
readable format as can be done with -h argument in say ls, df or du
shell commands. I have also tried to wrap it with print method with
object.size. Is there any intereset to include such a function into say
utils package? Any additional comments, suggestions are more than welcome.

Function and its man page can be found at
