Why using a special program?

First build the half of your model.
This model is then referenced by the main file with a line like
1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat

The next line is then
1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat

Or did I missunderstood your question?

hello Mike,

I think that this method only rotates the model...
was if I have somthing like that:
0 Untitled

I draw the black part and then I expect to have it "mirrored" like the
yellow one..

the same effect as you put the part in front of a mirror... not just
rotating it

am I right?

thank you
Cristian

Oh, I made a mistake. It should be for the second line for rotation about Y:
The next line is then
1 16 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat

You have to make sure that the origin of your modelhalf.dat will be at the
"mirror surface".

Here an mpd made from your source:
