Nigel,
For the time being find this sub stanza in [StdReport] and set them to the same
as mine.
You have actually caught me in the middle of writing a small piece of code to
add an additional menu item to new-belchertown ‘Units’ will will allow ‘on the
fly’ selection of either US, UK, Metric, Scandinavian, Canadian or Aviation
unit sets. I just like the idea of visitors to a site being able to select the
units they are most familiar with. I will share when complete.
Ian
[[Defaults]]
# Which language to use for all reports. Not all skins support all
# languages. You can override this for individual reports.
lang = en
# Which unit system to use for all reports. Choices are 'us', 'metric',
# or 'metricwx'. You can override this for individual reports.
unit_system = metricwx
[[[Units]]]
# Option "unit_system" above sets the general unit system, but
# overriding specific unit groups is possible. These are popular
# choices. Uncomment and set as appropriate. The unit is always
# in the singular, e.g., 'mile_per_hour', NOT 'miles_per_hour'
[[[[Groups]]]]
# group_altitude = meter # Options are 'foot'
or 'meter'
group_pressure = hPa # Options are 'inHg', 'mmHg', 'mbar',
or 'hPa'
# group_rain = mm # Options are 'inch',
'cm', or 'mm'
# group_rainrate = mm_per_hour # Options are
'inch_per_hour', 'cm_per_hour', or 'mm_per_hour'
group_temperature = degree_C # Options are 'degree_C',
'degree_F', or 'degree_K'
group_speed = mile_per_hour
group_speed2 = mile_per_hour2
# The following line is used to keep the above lines indented
# properly. It can be ignored.
unused = unused
group_density = kg_per_meter_cubed # No Option simply
'kg_per_meter_cubed'
