21.1Scgd
31.1ScgdThis is a program which I wrote as a clone of the UNIX 'units'
41.1Scgdcommand.  I threw it together in a couple days, but it seems to work,
51.1Scgdwith some restrictions.  I have tested it under DOS with Borland C and
61.1ScgdUltrix 4.2, and SunOS 4.1.  
71.1Scgd
81.1ScgdThis program differs from the unix units program in the following
91.1Scgdways:
101.1Scgd   it can gracefully handle exponents larger than 9 in output
111.1Scgd   it uses 'e' to denote exponentiation in numbers
121.1Scgd   prefixes are listed in the units file
131.1Scgd   it tries both -s and -es plurals
141.1Scgd   it allows use of * for multiply and ^ for exponentiation in the input
151.1Scgd   the output format is somewhat different
