     /etc/mkfile [-v] [-n] size[k|b|m|g] filename...

DESCRIPTION
     mkfile creates one or more files.	The file is padded with zeroes by
     default.  The default size is in bytes, but it can be flagged as
     kilobytes, blocks, megabytes, or gigabytes with the k, b, m, or g
     suffixes, respectively.

OPTIONS
     -v	  Verbose.  Report the names and sizes of created files.
