cooking-units

=============

Overview

--------

While writing a cookery book, units and their format can be quite

troublesome. This contains not only the question of how to print those

units, but also the question of the conversion of units. A cookery

book doesn't contain only SI units, it contains a much more colorful

range of units (kg, dag, g, oz, ... for example) and it may cause

some confusion if too many different units are used, but if you just

write a cookery book for fun you don't think about this ... until

someone (my mother in my case) tells you that it's too confusing.

This package solves both problems: It formats your input and you have

the option to convert the units globally or locally using an easy to

use key-value system.

Please note that this package is not intended to be used to print

units (and numbers) physically correct. It should be used for more

light-hearted stuff (like a cookery book for example).
