Option for feet and miles?

[routeconverter]

I don't see US or UK switching from the imperial to the metric system anytime soon

You're right. Wikipedia says the imperial system has been replaced by the metric system in the US in 1975. Ireland has completed in 2005, Great Britain is still converting

So I guess it would be useful for those who live or a use to those standards, so not only routes should be converted

Anyway, for those whose are more familiar with the imperial/statute/anglo-american system (what's the best name here?) with feet and miles: Please check the latest RouteConverter prerelease which I've just uploaded. Under Extras/Options... there is an option to modify the measurement system.
