-- This is pretty old code that I found back, but let's give it a try
-- in practice. It started out as m-units.lua but as we want to keep that
-- module around we moved the code to the dimensions module.
--
-- todo: maybe also an sciunit command that converts to si units (1 inch -> 0.0254 m)
-- etc .. typical something to do when listening to a news whow or b-movie
--
-- todo: collect used units for logging (and list of units, but then we need
-- associations too).

-- The lists have been checked and completed by Robin Kirkham.

-- dubious/wrong

--  Atom                        = [[u]], -- should be amu (atomic mass unit)
--  Bell                        = [[B]], -- should be bel
--  Sterant                     = [[sr]], -- should be steradian
--  Equivalent                  = [[eql]], -- qualifier?
--  At                          = [[at]], -- qualifier?
--  Force                       = [[f]], -- qualifier?
--  eVolt                       = [[eV]],
--  -- AC or DC voltages should be qualified in the text
--  VoltAC                      = [[V\unitsbackspace\unitslower{ac}]],
