// Class description:
//
// Simple placeholder for user Step limitations
// In order to activate these limitations, users need to register
// their "special" processes to each particle they want. 
// Sample processes below can be found under processes/transportation 
//   MaxAllowedStep    : UserStepLimit
//   other limitation  : UserSpecialCuts
// In addition, users can add their own Step limitations by creating 
// new class derived from G4UserLimits. In these case, fType member
// is supposed to be used to identify class.
