Whatever Happened to Wolfram Alpha?
you might want to try units(1).
https://www.gnu.org/software/units/units.html
the input language is less flexible than wolframalpha/google, but i quickly got used to it. it's nice to have something local and reliable. you can also define custom units.
i prefer using it in terse mode:
$ units -t 0.03$/hr*1month

Rates - currency rates in your terminal
Yes, units must not be used for currencies, it relies on hardcoded conversion rates. The latest version uses prices from FloatRates (2020-11-15) for most currencies and services.packetizer.com/btc for bitcoin. So while units is very very good for units conversion, it's no good for currencies unless you don't need more than a crude rule of thumb.

GNU Units
Does the GNU projet makes it repositories available online ?
I'd like to have a look at the code but all I found is an outdated mirror : https://github.com/ryantenney/gnu-units

GNU Units
Looks like it is comparable to javax.measure (https://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=363). I used an implementation of that a few years ago: https://github.com/unitsofmeasurement/uom-se
It's a complex domain, especially if you get down to having more complex units composed of other units and want to do conversions between metric and imperial. In our case we were dealing with material properties (chemical, physical, magnetic, etc.) and different countries and companies using different ways to record characteristics for materials.
What are some alternatives?

UnitsNet - Makes life working with units of measurement just a little bit better.
UnitSystems.jl - Physical unit systems (Metric, English, Natural, etc...)
