CNV: A Function to Convert Units

[Skyblues]

This is my first attempt to expand on epp's "CNV: A Function to Convert Units" program.

All the unit conversions seem to be working except Speed.
The only units that work in Speed are kph, mph and knot; the rest are creating "Error: Syntax Error".

It doesn't seem to like anything with a "/" in the name and I can't find the problem.

So I guess the question is, how do I get the code to accept a name with a "/" in it?
I've been reading through the code to try to figure why m/s (for example) isn't being accepted although it's a valid unit in the Prime.

Is there an IDE one can use to step through the code?

Edit:
In case anyone's interested, I discovered that anything with a "/" in it, must be enclosed in parentheses. I've tried out most of the unit conversions and they work. If anyone finds an error, please let me know.

I edited my original code with my update. I find it very useful. Thanks for the original code, epp!

Code:

#pragma mode(separator(.,;) integer(h32))

// when changing menus update the following: cFr, cTo, unit, prog

cFr = {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1};
cTo = {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1};
iPr;
