If I use the same arguments in the CONVERT() function, it converts correctly:
CONVERT(10_(N*m),1_(in*lbf))
I get 88.507..._in*lbf

It seems like maybe the Sto> shortcut for conversion doesn't work in this application?

Type it without the 1 in the front so that it looks like: 10_(N*m)▶_(in*lbf)

I've adjusted the code to account for non-atomic units. You can simply change the last if statement to:

Code:

if c2 then return("_("+symlist(c1,c2)+")"); else return("_"); end;

so that you don't have to encapsulate all your units in parentheses (should look nicer in the menus, too, without them). I've updated the first post to reflect these changes.
