Message:

1. rewrote RpUnits::define(...) and RpUnits::convert(...) fxns.
2. added functionality so you no longer need to call add_presets(...)
3. RpUnits can now handle conversions as follows 1cm2/Vs -> 1e-7m2/kVus
4. Cannot handle conversions dealing with Temperature very well because

Temperature conversions have offsets (+/- 32...). you can still do
F->C and Fs->Cs, but Fms->Cs provides unreliable results. (not to
mention that i'm still unsure how to do a conversion like this.

5. still need to add Fo (delta fahrenheit) and Co (delta celcius)

units and conversions. These should not be effected by the notorious
temperature

6. adjusted RpUnits_test.cc for testing. python.fortran and matlab

bindings have not been tested yet.
