Still the same in 2012.09.16 23:18, it doesn't seem that hard to
fix. Maybe just an if-statement to check if the number is provided
and add a space in that case.
So I checked the sources and saw that it might be a feature to
support the syntax with the number not included in the \unit call
(is anyone actually using this syntax?):
3 \unit{micro mol per second}
\unit{3 micro mol per second}
I guess it's hard to check whether there is a number provided before
the \unit command from inside \unit.
Any ideas? It renders it much less useful if it only works with a
unit *and* a number.
Marco
