    /*
     *   This is an example of using mrd_position_to_element(3mrd)
     *   to perform multiple Position To Element commands.  For
     *   each pair of arguments after the robot and transport
     *   address, it will position the transport to that location.
     *
     *      mrd_position_to_element robot transport type address
     *
     *   Type can be one of:
     *
     *      slot, port, drive or transport
     *
     *   The optional transport argument can be a transport address
     *   number, the word "default" or an empty string.  To keep the
     *   example as simple as possible, it doesn't try to invert the
     *   transport.
