   TRC and C3D Files can be imported via File->Import.  Options for
   Scale and use of custom locator are available.


   Create a square locator with:
      createNode squareLocator;

   A square locator is very similar to a standard maya locator,
   but is drawn as a box rather than a cross axis.  It is useful
   for representing global marker animation.


   Create a line locator with:
       createNode lineLocator;

   A line locator is similar to a standard maya locator, but
   is drawn as a sphere and draws a line to it's parent.  It
   is useful for representing a local marker that is parented
   to a particular bone.
