Subject: Updated: units 2.19-1
Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2019 07:39:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c729fb0b-9b18-e269-e3e1-2e904bad7b2a@SystematicSw.ab.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e520f690-53bc-115b-c42e-5e531391f41d@SystematicSw.ab.ca>

The following package has been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution:

* units-2.19-1

The Units program converts quantities expressed in various scales to
their equivalents in other scales. The units program can handle
multiplicative scale changes as well as nonlinear conversions such as
Fahrenheit to Celsius or wire gauge. Units comes with an annotated,
extendable database defining nearly three and a half thousand units.

NEWS

Version 2.19 - 28 May 2019
* Unit definitions updated to reflect new 2019 revisions to SI and the
  2018 NIST CODATA.
* Added definitions of country and USA state areas, and physical
  properties of selected woods.
* Changes only to definitions.units in this release.

[Also added wood units klafter and raummeter from German speaking areas.]
