C'mon, use units(1)!  Nothing better than text-based conversion.  Of 
course, I still have to check the man page every time I want to do 
something beyond lbs into stone, but still...

For my other apps, it's pretty standard.  Firefox and T'bird, Oo.o for 
MS files that lesspipe b0rks on.  The one KDE app I use a lot is Kile. 
I haven't really found another good TeX front-end for Linux (I use 
WinEdt on XP.)  I'm still surprised the Gnome folks don't have a 
comparable app.
