    initial v1  
    99These two seem to contradict each other. I agree that reading a large unstructured number is very hard. So why make it even harder by dropping the separator? I guess it should be fixed instead: make the thousands-separator locale-dependent.

    11 An unstructured number has IMO two advantages over the one with thousands separators: easy copy-pasting (let's say to "bc"), as well as iTerm 3 beta and gnome-terminal 3.20 showing useful information about the number on right click (gnome-terminal ticket with screenshot: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741728). I'd rather go for mc structuring these numbers properly.

Despite these two, I'd rather go for mc structuring these numbers properly though.

    1313Another idea to explore might be to use different color/boldness/underlying for every 3 characters, e.g. "__1__234__567__890 bytes" or some other visual differentiation.
