#' set one or more units global options
#'
#' set units global options, mostly related how units are printed and plotted
#' @param ... named options (character) for which the value is queried
#' @param sep character length two; default \code{c("~", "~")}; space separator between variable and units, and space separator between two different units
#' @param group character length two; start and end group, may be two empty strings, a parenthesis pair, or square brackets; default: square brackets.
#' @param negative_power logical, default \code{FALSE}; should denominators have negative power, or follow a division symbol?
#' @param parse logical, default \code{TRUE}; should the units be made into an expression (so we get subscripts)? Setting to \code{FALSE} may be useful if \link{parse} fails, e.g. if the unit contains symbols that assume a particular encoding
#' @param set_units_mode character; either \code{"symbols"} or \code{"standard"}; see \link{set_units}; default is \code{"symbols"}
#' @param auto_convert_names_to_symbols logical, default \code{TRUE}: should names, such as \code{degree_C} be converted to their usual symbol?
#' @param simplify logical, default \code{NA}; simplify units in expressions?
#' @param allow_mixed logical; if \code{TRUE}, combining mixed units creates a \code{mixed_units} object, if \code{FALSE} it generates an error
#' @param unitless_symbol character; set the symbol to use for unitless (1) units
#' @param define_bel logical; if \code{TRUE}, define the unit \code{B} (i.e., the \emph{bel}, widely used with the \emph{deci-} prefix as \code{dB}, \emph{decibel}) as an alias of \code{lg(re 1)}. \code{TRUE} by default, unless \code{B} is already defined in the existing XML database.
#' @details This sets or gets units options. Set them by using named arguments, get them by passing the option name.
#'
#' The default \code{NA} value for \code{simplify} means units are not simplified in \link{set_units} or \link{as_units}, but are simplified in arithmetical expressions.
#' @return in case options are set, invisibly a named list with the option values that are being set; if an option is queried, the current option value.
#' @examples
#' old = units_options(sep = c("~~~", "~"), group = c("", "")) # more space, parenthesis
#' old
#' ## set back to defaults:
#' units_options(sep = c("~", "~"), group = c("[", "]"), negative_power = FALSE, parse = TRUE)
#' units_options("group")
