+    r"""Adjusts the units on the x-axis of a matplotlib axis object to a more
+    compact form.
+
+    This function finds the multiplier (such as 10^3, 10^6, etc.) used by
+    matplotlib for the axis, identifies the current unit prefix (like k for
+    kilo, M for mega), and then consolidates these into a new, more compact unit
+    prefix. This is particularly useful for graphs where the axis values are
+    very large or very small, and a more readable unit is desired.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    ax : axis.Axis
+       Axis object whose x-axis units are to be compacted inplace.
+    base_unit : str, default "s"
+        The base unit (without prefix) for the axis.
+    regex_pattern_template : str, default r"\((.*?){base_unit}\)"
+        A regular expression template used to identify and extract the unit
+        prefix from the axis label.
+
+        The template must contain `{base_unit}` as a
+        placeholder for the actual base unit. Default matches parenthesized expressions like "(ks)" for kiloseconds.
