A beam can be shifted from the symmetry axis of the elements by:
6 S(HIFT) B(EAM)
            <x-displacement in meter>
            <a-angle displacement in rad>
            <y-displacement in meter>
            <b-angle displacement in rad> ;
            [example: S   B   0.02   0.001 ;]
This command can be used to describe a displaced beam at the entrance of
the system, it can also be used to describe a displaced optical element
by displacing the beam before and after this element. WARNING: this looks
a little bit silly in a graphical output.
