.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBunits\-master\fR
is a program that allows one to enter an expression of a physical or chemical quantity, for example
\fI1\&.8 km/h\fR
or
\fI3\&.2 \(mcmol/L\fR, and make a few operations with it: check the expression\*(Aqs syntax, perfom conversions, for example convert
\fI1\&.8 km/h\fR
to meters per second, which yields
\fI0\&.5 m/s\fR, and render the expression to various formats: (plain) LaTeX, PNG and SVG\&.
.PP
\fBunits\-master\fR
is a front\-end to the CLI program
\fBunits\-filter\fR, which can be used for more fine\-grained features\&.
