I'll send it to you in private mail, the two files are GPLd.
The package contains the following four user functions:
unit_init([optList]) /*initialize the package*/
unit_si(term) /*convert to SI base units*/
unit_use(inWantUnit,inTerm,[inOpt]) /*convert to arbitrary units*/
unit_remove(inTerm) /*substitute all units by one*/
Converting to arbitrary units is really weak in my package and often
does nonsense.
