Detailed Description

List of classes accessible by specifying single:activity:

`activity`	Class	Description
`diffuse`	Single	a single Hand that is mobile (default)
`fixed`	Picket	a single Hand anchored at a fixed position

Another class Wrist is used automatically to anchor a Single to a Mecable.

Example:

set single grafted
{
  hand = kinesin
  stiffness = 100
  activity = fixed
} 

A newly created Single can be anchored to a Mecable:

new single NAME {
  base = CLASS_NAME, INTEGER_REF, INTEGER_INDEX
}

where:

CLASS_NAME is the name of the object class (eg. solid)
INTEGER_REF designates the object:
- 1 for first object
- 2 for second...
- 0 designates the last object,
- -1 is the penultimate one, etc.
INTEGER_INDEX designates a point on this object:
- 0 = first point
- 1 = second point...

if INTERGER1 is negative, the last object is used.

You can attach a Single to a fiber:

new single protein
{
   attach = INTEGER, REAL
}

where:

INTEGER designates the fiber:
- 1 for the first fiber
- 2 for the second, etc
- a negative number indicates the last fiber created
REAL is the abscissa of the attachment point (0=MINUS_END)
