Hi,

this may be a feature request. I'm using org-mode for invoices. Org mode has
a table feature which utilises calc to implement spreadsheet
capabilities. For invoices I'd like to use € as units, but even when
defined as user unit calc refuses to accept the € sign as unit (syntax
error when entering 3€ in algebraic mode). It does work, though, when I
use eur as the unit name.

Best regards,

Martin

My .emacs.d/calc.el:

;;; Custom units stored by Calc on Wed Jan 17 09:35:19 2018
(setq math-additional-units '(
  (€ nil "Euro")
))
;;; End of custom units
