[Cuis-dev] First steps in Cuis

[Hernan Wilkinson]

Hi Stephen,
 as Juan said, you are using CuisUniversity that is a distribution of Cuis
with some additional packages we use for teaching at the university.
 Aconcagua is a measures package. It allows you to work with measure as
algebraic expressions. For example: 2*meter + (100*centimeter) --> 3*meter
There are many different units already declared (distance, weight,
currencies, time, etc), and you can create your own ones.
 Chalten is a richer model of the Gregorian calendar than the one that
comes with Cuis. It has more abstractions such as day of month, month of
year, etc., and it allows you to create time objects easily, for example:
January/1/2022 or January first, 2022, etc.

 LiveTyping is a tool that collects type information to improve the tools
such as senders/implementos/refactorings, etc.
 If you have any questions, let me know.

Cheers!
Hernan
