This plugin detects units of measurement (e.g. "10 lbs") and will add the metric or non-metric equivalent (e.g. "4.5 kilograms"). The converted measurement can be added in several ways:

• as a mouse-over, or
• in brackets after the original measurement, e.g. "10 lbs (4.5 kilograms)".

It is useful if you use lots of measurements and are writing for an international audience.
