Description

We have not removed spesial characters in the UnitSymbol name. However, that are still spesial characters in the description. This needs spesial handling in tools that generate automatic from the export. We should consider replacing the character with plain ASCII. The following characters are used: {('é', 'LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE'), ('ó', 'LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH ACUTE'), ('°', 'DEGREE SIGN'), ('Þ', 'LATIN CAPITAL LETTER THORN'), ('”', 'RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK'), ('“', 'LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK'), ('·', 'MIDDLE DOT'), ('³', 'SUPERSCRIPT THREE'), ('’', 'RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK'), ('í', 'LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH ACUTE'), ('²', 'SUPERSCRIPT TWO'), ('ã', 'LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH TILDE')}
Some of the UnitSymbole, UnitSymbole.J "Energy in joules (N·m = C·V = W·s)."
