Check for invalid number formats in the input textbox, with respect to the positioning of special characters such as the exponent symbol (E), decimal point (.) or the plus and minus signs (+,-)

For example:

• +5 is valid, but 5+ is invalid.
• 5.0E10 is valid, but 5.E10 is invalid and so on

Note:
All the valid/allowed characters for the input are listed below (separated by comma)
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,.,+,-,E

File/Folder size computation currently takes place in the main thread, so, whenever a large number of files/sub-directories are being processed, it causes the application to be unresponsive.

So, place the 'file/folder size computation' part in a separate thread, and provide a "Stop" button or something similar in the UI, so that the user will be able to stop this thread in case the computation takes too long for them.

_Note:_
A progress bar in the UI would be nice, to indicate that the file size is being computed, so that, the user need not be confused as to what is happening.

Please refer Issue #2 for further details

Provide support for the following to read the size of files/folders

REQUIRED:
Bandwidth value (as additional input) from the user.

• copying the results to the Clipboard
• to print them (??)
• to save the results to a file for further use
