 # 
 # Abstract
 # 
 #        This script shows how to move linked elements with
 #        Denavit-Hartenberg coordinates transforms. It makes use of
 #        the "hoco.tcl" package, which you can find on the TCL'ers
 #        Wiki also. You have to place the "hoco.tcl" file in the
 #        same directory of this file.
