1a3031715SAlexander Langer 2a3031715SAlexander LangerThis is a program which I wrote as a clone of the UNIX 'units' 3a3031715SAlexander Langercommand. I threw it together in a couple days, but it seems to work, 4a3031715SAlexander Langerwith some restrictions. I have tested it under DOS with Borland C and 5a3031715SAlexander LangerUltrix 4.2, and SunOS 4.1. 6a3031715SAlexander Langer 7a3031715SAlexander LangerThis program differs from the unix units program in the following 8a3031715SAlexander Langerways: 9a3031715SAlexander Langer it can gracefully handle exponents larger than 9 in output 10a3031715SAlexander Langer it uses 'e' to denote exponentiation in numbers 11a3031715SAlexander Langer prefixes are listed in the units file 12a3031715SAlexander Langer it tries both -s and -es plurals 13a3031715SAlexander Langer it allows use of * for multiply and ^ for exponentiation in the input 14a3031715SAlexander Langer the output format is somewhat different 15a3031715SAlexander Langer 16a3031715SAlexander LangerAdrian Mariano (adrian@cam.cornell.edu or mariano@geom.umn.edu) 17a3031715SAlexander Langer 18
