I think of it as a separate field that we cram onto the same line (in
the textual output format) for space reasons. In the machine-readable
formats it's definitely separate.
I agree it seems a bit inconsistent that there are two spaces after
one colon and only one after the other. I must have thought it was
a good idea at the time, but now I don't remember why. Since we
don't seem to put two spaces after any other colon in text format,
maybe
"Sort Method: %s %s: %ldkB\n"
would be better. Is that what you were thinking?
