Having had correspondence from various people, I am now fairly sure that the Americans have a different concept of a unit than (at least) Europeans.
Well I don't presume to speak for all Americans but I define a "unit" as a standard of measure. Plain and simple.
How do Europeans define it?
I withdraw the previous remark. I had better not speak on behalf of Europeans. The latest Quan documentation can be found on the two_param-branch in The Quan CVS. http://sourceforge.net/projects/quan/ regards Andy Little
