KFM Key framed Motion forward on a closed track

// point tracker script by Dora Gustafson, Studio Dora 2011
// The objct follows a path given by a number of points beginning with the object's position == <0,0,0>
// The path is closed so it ends where it begins
// Points prim's X-axis forward along the path and it's Y-axis is always horizontal
// v1.01 simplified for focus
// v1.02 with 'refFrame' like in vehicles, to change what is forward
// Translation divided in a straight one and one including a rotation
// Object forward can either be horizontal or follow path forward up and down
// v1.02.1 For WIKI. RefFrame inverted. Track is relative to where script is reset
