Feature request: weight units #1

Closed zz0rk closed 3 years ago

I am unable to convert e.g. cups to grams. I've installed all prerequisites as per setup instructions.

= 1 cup to gram

Thanks

Hello.

Do other conversions work?

Cups measure volume, but grams measure mass. You could convert cups to litters or milliliter but not to mass.

I'm working on including custom units but it is not easy to decide how to name them so I don't overwrite the default units.

Yes, that's what I figured. Everything else works really well. It's very convenient to do all of these conversions from within Ulauncher. Great work! Thanks, char!

Thanks,

I am closing for now, feel free to reopen.

As I said I am working on including custom units. I have alreaded integrated currency to the unit system, but I realized that you can now do conversiont that don't make sense in real life, but make sense mathematically (like 10 EUR litter to CAD cup)

Once I figure a way to solve this I will try to allow custom units. pint docs
