//   2000/07/10 François BERTEL Creation
//   2001/04/10 Ian Scott (Manchester) Converted perceps header to doxygen
//   2002/01/22 Peter Vanroose - return type of from_local_to_cs() changed from ptr to non-ptr
//   2002/01/28 Peter Vanroose - vcl_vector members changed from ptr to non-ptr
//   2004/09/17 Peter Vanroose - made beat(), parent(), motion() non-virtual: they just return a member and should not be overloaded
