I'm trying to find a tool that allows users to use a set of predefined 
macros to generate units in equations and text so I don't have to type 
\mbox{} a million times. I've noticed there's a couple of La/TeX packages 
for SI units (m^{-2}, ft^{3} acre^{-1}, etc.), but I didn't see any 
reference to being able to cut the long macros into a M- or C- sequence. 
Since I'm not sure which news group this question should go in, I apologise 
if this isn't the best place, but it seemed that an emacs group might know 
something about this since emacs *is* the coolest tool around for working on 
LaTeX documents.

Thanks,
Jeff,
