@zombielinux Thank you for contributing. I'm just another contributor, like you. @formatc1702 is the owner that approves and merges PRs into dev when he thinks they are ready. He is currently on vacation, and I decided to give you a few advices that I believe will help you getting this PR accepted, but remember that @formatc1702 might not share all my opinions.
- Just a friendly advice: Read the hints about writing good commit messages linked from this current draft written by @formatc1702 : https://github.com/formatc1702/WireViz/blob/feature/syntax-description/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md
- Please include all commits needed for this feature into your
patch-1branch and re-push it, i.e. join (rebase or cherry-pick) the #162 commit(s) into this PR. The automatic PR checks currently fail in this PR because yourDataClasses.pychanges are missing.

Here you risk making a BOM entry where total_length is the sum of several numeric values with different units. I can see at least two strategies to avoid this:
- Convert the values to a common unit before adding them together.
- Include the length unit in the
cable_groupto avoid joining entries with different length units.
I recommend discussing this choice (and if choice 1, what common unit to choose) in #7.

I can see an unfortunate difference in naming style between these two attribute pairs:
cable.gaugeandcable.gauge_unitcable.lengthandcable.lengthunit
Feel free to discuss naming conventions in a new issue, but I suggest we try to keep it consistent.
