fend 1.4.0

Version 1.4.0

on Rust Cargo

Changes in this version:

• The license of fend has changed. As of v1.4.0, fend is available under the GPL 3.0 (or later). See LICENSE.md for more information.

• Change unit simplification and unit aliasing to be simpler and more consistent. Units like % and million are now simplified unless you explicitly convert your result to one of those units. fend will now also simplify certain combinations of units, such as volts / ohms becoming amperes.

  For example:

  > 5%
  0.05
  > 46 million
  46000000
  > 0.5 to %
  50%
  > 34820000 to million
  34.82 million
  > (5 volts) / (2 ohms)
  2.5 amperes
  > 3 feet * 125 kg * s^-2
  114.3 newtons
  > c / (145MHz)
  approx. 2.0675341931 meters
  

• Rename Windows installer artifacts (MSI files) to also include the version number, e.g. fend-1.4.0-windows-x64.msi.

• Replace nanorand dependency with rand, which is better supported and fixes compilation errors on FreeBSD.
