Please don't start the discussion again; we already came to a

Sorry, I was trying to show that this thread is heading toward
duplicating that discussion.
* nanometer internal units
* 32-bit values on 32-bit machines, 64-bit on 64-bit.
* configure option for 64-bit values regardless of machine in case you
need a board larger than seven
Well, I understand your points above as being *exactly* what I just
said.
As I said before my comments, I was primarily trying to summarize the
resolution of the prior discussion and the rationale in a productive
way since it sounded like this thread was heading in the same direction
as the previous discussion. So this present thread about using "mm"
internal units is really going to be resolved when the nanometer-unit
solution previously identified is actually implemented.
Ok, so without discussing it again...
I know that using metric internally is the optimal way to go, but if I
understand it correctly, this is NOT what the current software does and
there are NO plans to change any of it. Is that correct? Are there any
issues significant enough to justify actually changing the software?
