# units-master(1)

Graphic application to manage S.I. units-based quantities

## NAME

units-master - Graphic application to manage S.I. units-based quantities

## SYNOPSIS

**units-master**

## DESCRIPTION

**units-master** is a program that allows one to enter an expression of a physical or chemical quantity, for example *1.8 km/h* or *3.2 mol/L*, and make a few operations with it: check the expression's syntax, perfom conversions, for example convert *1.8 km/h* to meters per second, which yields *0.5 m/s*, and render the expression to various formats: (plain) LaTeX, PNG and SVG.

**units-master** is a front-end to the CLI program **units-filter**, which can be used for more fine-grained features.
