I am using the m-units module to typeset "degrees Celsius" and "degrees
Fahrenheit" in my cookbook.
The Fahrenheit character and the degrees look very nice together with
the default Computer Modern fonts in ConTeXt.
The Celsius character, on the other hand, looks only passably good.
I think that both of them would benefit from additional kerning, the C
more than the F. Is this something that should be done in the m-units
module or should I continue to use my local hack?
I typeset them at 8pt with:
\Degrees\kern-0.9pt\Celsius
\Degrees\kern-.5pt\Fahrenheit
Also, what is the "correct" way of loading a module with ConTeXt? I used
\input m-units, which works fine. I just wondered if there was some
higher level way of doing this.
