I'd love to have that feature. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for the feedback! I see two ways how this could be implemented * Introduce a new mode (`enable natural_units`) which completely switches the behavior of insect where it...

@robinro Closing this as there is no further feedback and I don't see a huge benefit.

Thank you for the feedback! > 1. Add any conventional units. For Hartree atomic units, it would be `1 hartree (Ha) = 27.211386245988 eV` ([hartree](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartree)) and `1 bohr = 0.529177210903...

Thank you for the reference. I know about the new SI definition. I don't really see how it is related to this issue. Some units (e.g. `second` and `meter`) were...

I was recently looking for my insectrc in `~/.config`... so yeah. I totally agree. I don't think there is any disadvantage in also allowing ~/.insectrc (if only for backwards compatibility),...

Sounds good. Unfortunately, `sec` is a reserved keyword (for `second`). Apart from this, we could easily add this to `purescript-units` and (subsequently) to Insect.

Note that you also use insect to define the functions yourself: ``` secant(x)=1/cos(x) cosecant(x)=1/sin(x) ```

> Should I add `csc` and `sec` to `Quantities` before adding them to Insect, seeing as that's where the whole bunch of trigonometric functions are? yes, that would be great....
