So now you can autoconvert all cups to deciliters for usage in other countries? :-)
I have a recipe collection since I bought my first Atari 30+ years ago. I always tried to stick to text-files written with a certain style in mind for later processing into a database but haven't gotten around to actually do it yet. Did a half-hearted start on in last week again while I was sick but since the textfiles work already as they are, I stopped again.
Usually the ingredients are written "1 dl water", nothing fancy like their problems so would be very easy to parse with just some php.

It's easier just to get a set of measuring spoons and cups in addition to a set of scales and metric measuring cups. Besides, even though cups may not be used as much in the metric world, tablespoons and teaspoons and their fractions are, so most home cooks already own a set of measuring spoons at least. Of course units like floz and oz do need converting to normal volumetric and weight units.
