"Inlining" means replacing a reference to a file with the contents
(individual lines) of that file, but with each line transformed according
to the transformation matrix of the original reference.
For example, if I inline the line 1 16 0 10 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 rect.dat
the result would be the four edgelines and the quad (plus the comments)
contained in the file rect.dat, but each line would be moved y=10.
This is great for using submodels in a model file, but it's a necessity
when creating parts, since you often need to modify or build off of
primitive files.
The inverse of inlining is subfiling, where you write the selected lines
to a subfile, and include in the main file a reference to the submodel.
LDAO implements both of these very well.
