Inlining is replacing a reference to a subfile with the code from that
file. So if I had a part file, which had the line:
1 1 10 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 stud.dat
and I "inlined" the stud.dat, my one line would be replaced with:
1 1 10 0 0 6 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 6 4-4edge.dat
1 1 10 -4 0 6 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 6 4-4edge.dat
1 1 10 0 0 6 0 0 0 -4 0 0 0 6 4-4cyli.dat
1 1 10 -4 0 6 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 6 4-4disc.dat
Which are the contents of stud.dat, updated with the color, position,
and orientation information I specified in the original line.
The LDAO Editor has an Inline tool (it's the button on the editor's
toolbar with a left-pointing blue arrow and several horizontal black
lines). Select the line(s) you want to inline, click the button, and
the inline is done. :) If you select a lot of text, the inline
operation might take awhile to complete.

Two things:
I've added a line/column box to the status line in the newest
development version of LDAO. :) But the new version isn't ready for
release yet. :(
And, if you click one of the error messages from the L3P pane/box, LDAO
will jump to the corresponding line. LDAO is a little stupid about this
- it jumps to the *current* line number. If you run the L3P Check tool,
then delete 10 lines from the top of your file, clicking an L3P message
will jump to the 10th line *past* the line that caused the problem. Use
the ! button to refresh the L3P pane.
