Summary description: Draw systems of intermeshing gears with MetaPost

Announcement text: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This package helps to draw systems of intermeshing gears with METAPOST. This package allows users
to model various gears/rack and gear/rack systems
(and even spirographs). Because with METAPOST, we do not need to declare numeric variable, with mp-gears, we define parameters (in table) associated to un numeric identifier and then we manipulate the gear object with this numeric identifier.

This package is in beta versionrCodo not hesitate to report bugs, as well as requests for improvement
