+					slerp(placement2, t, shorten = True): interpolate between self and placement2.
+                    This function performs independent interpolation of rotation and movement.
+                    Result of such interpolation might be not what application expects, thus this
+                    tool might be considered for simple cases or for interpolating between small intervals.
+                    
+                    For more complex cases you better use the advanced sclerp() function.
