Small issue with dimensions

Small issue with dimensions

[Vedran Miletić]

Hi,

the following code

\starttext
1\unit{bit / second}
\stoptext

gives

1 econd

tested with: mtx-context     | current version: 2011.11.14 16:17

It works correctly here with the latest beta. It gives "1 bit/s".

I take the opportunity of this mail to mention again another \unit problem. I 
copy/paste here a part of a mail I sent two weeks ago but which didn't get any 
answer...

All the best.

It does. I posted the wrong code, sorry. Therefore:

\starttext
1\unit{second}
\stoptext

gives 1 econd.

But \unit{1 second} gives the correct result...

Indeed, but IIRC Hans' original approach was 1\unit{second} style of
writing[1]. I would like to know if this can be fixed.

Just updated to latest minimals and rechecked, it's fixed. Thanks.
