---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 Since maybe the developers are reluctant to implement the "metrology"
 module I submitted in #9763, when there's already a "units" module that
 has the same purpose, I'm trying to port the `LaTeX` capabilities to the
 already existing "units" module.

 TO DO: Complete the latexdict list of units and `LaTeX` representation (if
 a unit isn't there, its symbol will be replaced by its name)

 Also, I'm implementing an easier way to use `SI` prefixes on the units
 module. The patch I submitted in #9759 wasn't very intuitive (you had to
 type "units.length.meter.kilo"), partly because I didn't know very well
 how did that module work. This new version allows you to simply type
 "units.length.kilometer" (even if it's not tab-completed) and it will do
 the rest.
