ConTeXt analogue to \usepackage{units}

ConTeXt analogue to \usepackage{units}

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

Is there a ConTeXt analogue to the LaTeX package 'units', used for
typesetting scientific units? I'm especially interested in the 'unitfrac'
functionality of that package ...

Thanks, Joh

Hi Johannes,

I have never used the LaTeX package 'units' but see
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Units

Cheers,

i have no clue what the latex units do, but context has indeed a module that deals with units, actuallt this is one of the first add-on modules (i.e. not in the kernel, but extra functionality)

\usemodule[units]

which provides things like: 

bla bla 10 \Cubic \Meter \Per \Second\ bla bla

There is module called 'units' but if it does what that LaTeX
package does is beyond my knowledge.
