Hello,
This is probably a very trivial question, but I'm not sure how TeX works in that respect. I'm used to use a macro \def\unit#1{{\rm\ #1} in constructs such as $1\unit{cm^2} \times 2\unit{cm}$. However I figured out that the contents of \unit{} cannot be broken accross lines, most probably because this becomes an hbox.
Is there any simple workaround?
\def\unit{\groupedcommand{\rm\ }{}} or \def\unit#1{\bgroup\rm\ #1\egroup} { and } are same as \begingroup and \endgroup in math mode and prevent and a line break of the content. Wolfgang
