   * \brief An exact geodesic line
   *
   * GeodesicLineExact facilitates the determination of a series of points on a
   * single geodesic.  This is a companion to the GeodesicExact class.  For
   * additional information on this class see the documentation on the
   * GeodesicLine class.
   *
   * Example of use:
   * \include example-GeodesicLineExact.cpp
   *
   * <a href="GeodSolve.1.html">GeodSolve</a> is a command-line utility
   * providing access to the functionality of GeodesicExact and
   * GeodesicLineExact (via the -E option).
