Hi Kevin,
    Kilobyte and megabyte have very specific definitions. Please see:

Subject: Re: [HP3000-L] VOLINFO


A few more thoughts as I get started in this...

1. How about a common function that converts sizes, such that you
    only need to provide sector output from volinfo.

setvar MB  HPSECTORS ( !SECTORS, "MB" )
setvar KB  HPSECTORS ( !sectors, "KB" )
setvar bytes HPSECTORS ( !sectors, "BYTES" )
setvar GB  HPSECTORS ( !sectors, "GB" )

Of course we can do the math ourselves, but it may vary between us
on our own definitions of what megabyte or kilobyte means.
  (1000 or 1024).


2. Remove boolean Loner.
    I would think VolType is sufficient.
    Or do we also need booleans for scratch, locked, disabled, etc.
