An excellant idea. I was unaware of that standard, but was trying to head that
direction in my last posting.
Someone thought it wouldn't work with imaginary numbers, but there actually is
no ambiguity if the imaginary i must immediately follow the number, and the
metric suffix follow that, if both exist.
