When running r128gain via the command line on a single file, the following text is outputted:

Analyzing loudness of file 'path/to/music.mp3'...
File 'path/to/music.mp3': loudness = -9.8 dbFS, peak = 0.6 dbFS

1) Units of loudness and peak are given in dbFS, not in LUFS. Is this the expected behavior, or have the units been mixed up? 2) If dbFS is the intended unit, it should read "dBFS".

You are right, loudness should be in "LUFS" and peak in "dBFS".
