      <pre xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">On Tue, 4 Jan 2005 Patrick Happel uploaded an 
update of his package 

   unitsdef

to CTAN.

There are a lot of packages for typesetting units in LaTeX2e.  Some define 
macros to typeset a lot of units but do not suit to the actual font 
settings, some make the characters needed available but do not predefine 
any unit.

This package tries to comply with both requirements. It predefines common 
units, defines an easy to use interface to define new units and changes 
the output concerning to the surrounding font settings.
