_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

   cross: An object of class 'cross'.  See 'read.cross' for details.

  marker: The name of the marker to be moved (a character string).

  newchr: The chromosome to which the marker should be moved.

  newpos: The position (in cM) at which the marker should be placed. 
          If missing, the marker is placed at the end of the
          chromosome.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     The input 'cross' object, but with the specified marker moved to
