File/A : The filename whose filesize should be set. If it doesn't exist, it will be created.
NewSize/A : The new filesize, with 64bit support!
Z=FillWithZeros/S: Overwrite the new data with zeros, otherwise data from deleted files could be used!
V=Verbose/S : For testing, show "Set filesize to xxx bytes...".
K/S : NewSize will be multiplied by 1.000!
M/S : NewSize will be multiplied by 1.000.000!
