     *   Example mrd_eject(3mrd).
     *
     *   This example is slightly different from the others since it
     *   also demonstrates the Eject Port feature of mrd_eject(3mrd).
     *   This feature can be used on the TL820 family to move a tape
     *   from the Pass-through mechanism (PTM) to the outport.
     *
     *   The command usage is:
     *
     *      mrd_eject robot [ slot port [ volume_tag ] ]
