Hi Paul,

If you're directly including eepic files into your LaTeX document, you 
only need to put "\usepackage{units}" in the document preamble and use 
"\\nicefrac" in the label commands; an ePiX file is oblivious to LaTeX 
packages. For stand-alone (eps or pdf) images, compiling with

  elaps -p units <file>.xp

should do the job.  :)

You can specify as many packages as necessary, one per "-p" flag.
