I was just reading some random man pages, and noticed a few places where "Mb"
should probably be changed to "MB", since the intended meaning is Megabytes, not
Megabits.
In the base system, these are sort(1) and ld(1). I have only a few additional
packages installed, but found it also in /usr/local/man/cat3/pcrestack.0
The "Mb" abbreviation is also used in pf-related pages: hostapd.conf(5),
iked.conf(5), ipsec.conf(5), pf.conf(5), in the meaning Megabits per second. So
it could be more correctly written as Mb/s (or at least Mbps). However, since
the Mb word, in the meaning Mb/s, is already part of pf syntax, I suppose it is
going to stay that way. :)
