Cannot parse foot, mile, etc.. about dimensional-parsers HOT 6 OPEN

It's because the parse is based on allUCUMUnits which right now only appears to include the SI ones.

If you go through adding demoteUnit' foot (etc) lines to https://github.com/dmcclean/dimensional-parsing/blob/master/src/Numeric/Units/Dimensional/Parsing/UCUM.hs#L43-L80 it should parse the non SI ones as well.

Sorry, this whole thing isn't ready for use yet at all, still have a ways to go.

Oh, wait, no it isn't just that, sorry, spoke too soon.

I just pushed an ugly hack of a fix.

Now I get:

*Numeric.Units.Dimensional.Parsing.UCUM> parseOnly (ucumUnit (allUcumUnits) <* endOfInput) "[ft_i]"
Right (Exactly 1 % 1,Just 1 ft =def= Exactly 381 % 1250 of the SI base unit)

I will work on cleaning up this entire package later. It's still on my list but I am pretty swamped this month at work.

Missed a language extension because I had been testing in GHCi with that set. Now it works.

It works now. Thanks!

No problem!

What features are you looking for in the longer term? I am going to make this library actually good, I just can't work on it for a couple of weeks. Maybe at the Compose unconference in February.
