Simple fle size question
I'm sure this is a simple one, but I'm new to UNIX and I can't figure it out.
How do I view file size in Megabytes? I have files in a directory and the size is 184710. I think this is in bytes but I'm not usre. How can I view this in MB.
Thanks.

vwright
VWRIGHT(1) General Commands Manual VWRIGHT(1)
NAME
vwright - normalize a RADIANCE view, shift it to the right
SYNOPSIS
vwright [ view options ] distance
vwright [ view options ] name
DESCRIPTION
In the first form, vwright shifts a RADIANCE view the specified distance to the right, putting out a complete set of view parameters in a
single line on the standard output. This utility is most often used to compute a right-eyed view from a left-eye view for stereo imaging.
If no options are specified on the command line, vwright reads a view from its standard input.
The distance given is in world coordinate units. A negative value indicates a shift to the left rather than the right.
The second form substitutes a name prefix in place of the shift distance, and produces constant assignments on the standard output suitable
for passing directly to rcalc(1). For a given prefix N, the constant names are as follows:
Nt: view type ('v'==1,'l'==2,'a'==3,'h'==4,'c'==5,'s'==6)
Npx: view point x value
Npy: view point y value
Npz: view point z value
Ndx: view direction x value (normalized)
Ndy: view direction y value (normalized)
Ndz: view direction z value (normalized)
Nd: view focal distance
Nux: view up vector x value (normalized)
Nuy: view up vector y value (normalized)
Nuz: view up vector z value (normalized)
Nh: view horizontal size
Nv: view vertical size
Ns: view shift
Nl: view lift
No: view fore clipping distance
Na: view aft clipping distance
Nhx: derived horizontal image vector x value (normalized)
Nhy: derived horizontal image vector y value (normalized)
Nhz: derived horizontal image vector z value (normalized)
Nhn: derived horizontal image vector multiplier
Nvx: derived vertical image vector x value (normalized)
Nvy: derived vertical image vector y value (normalized)
Nvz: derived vertical image vector z value (normalized)
Nvn: derived vertical image vector multiplier
EXAMPLES
To start rpict(1) on a view .06 meters left of the view in the file "right.vf":
rpict `vwright -.06 < right.vf` scene.oct > right.hdr &
To move the rad(1) view named "left" 2.5 inches to the right and render from there:
rad -v "right `rad -n -s -V -v left examp.rif | vwright 2.5`" examp.rif &
To pass a view to rcalc for conversion to some other view:
rcalc -n -e `vwright orig < orig.vf` -f viewmod.cal -o view.fmt > new.vf
