- units-filter: Parser for expressions concerning physical values
Units-filter is a basic standalone filter written in C language,
flex and bison. It inputs strings like "1.5e3 nN.m.s^-1" (it could
be the time growth ratio of a torque) and outputs the value in
standard SI unit, followed by the physical dimension of this value.
.
example :~/src$ echo 1.5e3 nN.m.s^-1 | units-filter
1.5e-06 2 1 -3 0 0 0 0 0 0
.
2 -3
which means : 1.5e-06 (SI unit) m .kg.s
.
This parser can be embedded in educational test systems, in order to
analyze a student's answer to a problem of physics or chemistry.

- units-master: Powerful units converter with a GUI
Units-master is a graphic application with three features:
- check the syntax of a physical quantity, like "25 m/s", or "1.2 µA"
- perform conversions, like "1.2 µA" to "1.2e-3 mA"
- render physical quantities to plain LaTeX, PNG, SVG.
