Most of the meta commands are used outside of the original LEdit program.
ROTATION CENTER is currently only used in MLCad (I make use of it frequently).
If you're not able to use MLCad (I don't see why not), then I suggest making a

This also answers one of my speculations: does anybody still use LEdit?
Apparently, yes.
