Size of files in human, readable form

[Tony J Ibbs (Tibs)]

Tim Muddletin came up with the "modern" Python solution. Attached is a small
utility (written back when Python was at 1.3, so not quite as sophisticated
in the way it gets the file size) that wraps the same concept up *as* a
utility. It takes a filename (reports on its size) or a number of
bytes/megabytes/etc (converts it). If you don't give any arguments, it
explains this...
