units in Breadstick
Breadstick runs Debian's own units package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so units should behave as it does on a Linux PC. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.
Commands in the package
unitsunits_cur
Type one in Breadstick's Terminal to run it.
Calculators and unit converters run in Breadstick's Terminal as on any Linux system. More in the docs: The Terminal.
About units
From Debian's package description
GNU 'units' program converts quantities expressed in various scales to their equivalents in other scales. The 'units' program can only handle multiplicative scale changes directly. It uses a functional notation for non-proportional conversions such a Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius temperature.
This package includes the units_cur script to update currency conversion information; this script requires a Python 3 interpreter and the python3-requests library.
From Debian's description of the units package, under that package's license.
