    /*
     *   This is an example of using mrd_move_medium directly to move
     *   a cartridge from one slot to another.  To simplify the
     *   example, it only supports slot to slot moves, but it shows
     *   how the absolute element addresses are calcuated.  For each
     *   additional destination address given, the previous (successful)
     *   destination address is used as the source.
     *
     *   Usage:
     *
     *      mrd_ready robot port [ port... ]
