// <synopsis>
// A MVPosition is a 3-vector of positions in a rectangular frame with
// internal units of m.<br>
// It can be constructed with:
// <ul>
//   <li> MVPosition() creates point at origin (0,0,0)
//   <li> MVPosition(MVPosition) creates a copy
//   <li> MVPosition(Double, Double, Double) creates (x,y,z) with
//		specified values
//   <li> MVPosition(Quantity length,Double, Double) creates a MVPosition assuming
//		that the two values are (in radians) angle along 'equator' 
//		and towards 'pole'. A length of zero will be made 1um.
//   <li> MVPosition(Quantity length, Quantity, Quantity) creates a MVPosition 
//		assuming angles as in previous, or positions
//   <li> <src>MVPosition(Quantity, Quantum<Vector<Double> >)</src> creates a 
//		MVPosition from angle vector, using first two angles, and 
//		assuming second as zero if not present, and pole if length 0.
//   <li> <src>MVPosition(Quantum<Vector<Double> ></src> creates from
//		angles or positions, depending on the units in the
//		quantum vector. In the angle case,
//		the data derived can be scaled with the readjust() function. If
//		the unit of the quantum vector is length, position is
//		assumed.
//    <li> <src>MVPosition(Vector<Double></src> creates from angles (less than
//		or equal to two elements) or x,y,z (3 elements).
//    <li> <src>MVPosition(Vector<Quantity></src> creates from length+angles,
//		angles, or x,y,z, depending on units.
// </ul>
// A void adjust(Double) function normalises the vector to a length of 1;
// a get() returns as a
// Double 3-vector the length and angles of the position vector;
// a getAngle() returns a Quantum 2-vector, (uInt) returns the indicated 
// element, and getValue returns the vector.<br>
// Positions can be added and subtracted.<br>
// The multiplication of two positions produces the in-product.<br>
// </synopsis>
//
// <example>
// See <linkto class=MPosition>Mposition</linkto> class.
// </example>
//
// <motivation>
// To do coordinate transformations
// </motivation>

// <todo asof="1996/02/04">
//	<li> See if not better to have a direction + length
