$ emacs .
  /home/norfelsburg:
  total used in directory 19 available 5.2 GiB

What does that mean, 19 GiB?

Therefore let's get rolling with Proper English!

Step one, proper capitalization:
  Total used in directory 19 available 5.2 GiB

OK, now let's get to work on that 19:
Maybe it means "blocks". OK, let's say so:
  Total used in directory 19 blocks available 5.2 GiB

OK, now how about a comma:
  Total used in directory 19 blocks, available 5.2 GiB

And for a grand slam, a period at the back!:
  Total used in directory 19 blocks, available 5.2 GiB.

Sure, ls still says the mysterious
$ ls -l
total 19

But you emacs guys made a more readable version, but still not clear
enough.
