That was me (I use the "fw" prefix to distinguish "Fourth World" library stuff).
Here ya' go:
function Bytes2Size n
set the numberformat to "0.#"
if n < 1024 then put n &" bytes" into n
else
put n / 1024 into n
if n < 1024 then put n &" k" into n
else
put n / 1024 &" MB" into n
end if
end if
return n
end Bytes2Size
Things have changed since I wrote that. Might be good to update all the way up to TB.
