Great work, only it is too good (I call your
function ths-mm) - compare:

    $ ths 1.75
    1-3/4
    $ ths 1.73
    1-3/4
    $ ths-mm 1.75
    1 3/4
    $ ths-mm 1.73
    1 73/100

If you devide into hundreds, you might as well
use the much better decimal system, right?

Tho one thing that is clearly better with
ths-mm is no recursion...
