Unfortunately, ROTATE and TRANSLATE are LDLite-only.  So you can't use
LDraw/LEdit on models with ROTATE or TRANSLATE commands.

But LDlite _can_ translate those meta-commands to traditional LDraw

ldlite newstyle.dat -roldstyle.dat
where newstyle.dat is the input file and oldstyle.dat is the output file.
