c706c470e4 Bring a little more compability with GNU units 2.12
- notionally support a 'history file' flag. This doesn't do much now,
  but is there to prevent scripts written against GNU units from
  breaking
- correctly gracefully quit rather than exit (this will make it easier
  to support a history file in the future)
- remove the "t" flag from fopen which was there to support windows. We
  have not supported windows since at the latest, the introduction of
  capsicum.

cae148478c units(1): Add support for output-format
Add support for the output-format argument.  This also exposes subtle
	rounding differences between GNU units and our units.

0ce97bdf81 units: Support start of line comments with '#'
Modern GNU units(1) supports comments anywhere with '#' but take the easy route for now and at least support start of line # comments.

9653775e6b units(1): Add v option: verbose
For increased compatibility with GNU units: support a -v option which
produces more verbose output when spitting out the answer.
GNU -v does additional work in the version, information, and check output which
we do not (yet?) replicate.

existence of the default units file and prints it to the screen.

6d12a83408 units(1): make -V print version instead of -v
The units program is likely little used.  It is even less likely that a script
will want the units program to print out its version number by passing -v.

GNU units uses -V for version and -v for verbosity.

Increase compatibility between these two versions (written by the same author)
by switching our flag as well.

Take this opportunity to remove bogus information about the version number and
just call it 'FreeBSD units'.

ab7e59168c It seems when I added code for affine unit changes to units, I
forgot to tell the man page we could now convert Celsius to Fahrenheit.

294a60d836 As far as I can tell, you have never been able to use 'ab' as a unit
name if 'a' and 'b' are unit names. You can use 'a b' though.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.
