   (description
    "Units is a program for converting measured quantities between units of
measure.  It can handle scale changes through adaptive usage of standard
scale prefixes (i.e. micro-, kilo-, etc.).  It can also handle nonlinear
conversions such as Fahrenheit to Celcius.  Its interpreter is powerful
enough to be used effectively as a scientific calculator.")
