(Update) Hmm... That's odd. I do not see the asterisk there. Neither in the explorer, nor here in the editor when I copied the string "106,7 KiB (109*236 bytes)". But it appeared upon submitting the post only.
(Update 2) OK, it is non-breaking space: https://unicode-table.com/en/00A0/ (bytes C2A0).Last edited by Jānis; 08-Mar-2017, 11:46 AM.Comment

I see the same on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, with Norwegian settings.
The workaround is to run the following command before running bcompare: export LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
