- Document in the manpage that "KBytes" may also be written as

"kilobytes" or "KB", that "Kbits" may also be written as

"kilobits", and so forth. Closes ticket #9222.

With this option, and in other options that take arguments in bytes,

KBytes, and so on, other formats are also supported. Notably, "KBytes" can

also be written as "kilobytes" or "kb"; "MBytes" can be written as
|

"megabytes" or "MB"; "kbits" can be written as "kilobits"; and so forth.

Tor also accepts "byte" and "bit" in the singular.
|

The prefixes "tera" and "T" are also recognized.
|
||||
If no units are given, we default to bytes.
|
||||
To avoid confusion, we recommend writing "bytes" or "bits" explicitly,
|
||||
since it's easy to forget that "B" means bytes, not bits.
