<h1>The Unity units library</h1>

<p>This is the unity library, which is able to parse scientific unit
specifications using a variety of syntaxes.</p>

<p><strong>This is version @DIST@, @RELEASE_DATE@</strong></p>

<p>The library is released under the terms of the 2-clause BSD licence.</p>

<p>The four syntaxes are:</p>
<ul>
<li>the FITS specification, section 4.3 (<a href='http://dx.doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201015362'>doi:10.1051/0004-6361/201015362</a>);</li>
<li>OGIP memo OGIP/93-001 (<a href='ftp://legacy.gsfc.nasa.gov/fits_info/fits_formats/docs/general/ogip_93_001/ogip_93_001.ps'>postscript</a>); and</li>
<li>CDS's <a href='http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/doc/catstd-3.2.htx'><em>Standards for Astronomical Catalogues, Version 2.0</em></a>.</li>
<li>The VOUnits syntax.  This is a subset of the FITS syntax, specified by the
