+List Operator LINTRAN
+
+    Performs a linear translation on each element of the input list,
+producing a transformed list as output.
+
+	lintran (list)
+
+An input line may contain a variable number of fields.  Two fields of each
+input line are designated as the x and y coordinates (default cols 1,2).
+All other fields are to be preserved across the transformation.  Lines which
+begin with a sharp ("#") are considered comment lines and are passed on to
+the output unmodified, as are blank lines.  If either if x or y are indefinite
+and a pure translation or scale change is being performed, the corresponding
+output coordinate will be indefinite.  If either input coordinate is indefinite
+and a rotation is being performed, both output coordinates will be indefinite.
+
+
+Parameters:
+
+	list
+	    List or lists to be transformed (template).
+
+	xcol = 1, ycol = 2
+	    Columns containing the x and y coordinates.
+
+	x1 = 0.0, y1 = 0.0
+	    Current origin.
+
+	xscale = 1.0, yscale = 1.0
+	    Scale factor to be applied to the input coordinates, relative
+	    to the current origin [x0,y0].
+
+	angle = 0.0
+	    Rotation angle about the origin [x0,y0].
+
+	x2 = 0.0, y2 = 0.0
+	    New origin; applied after scaling and rotating the input coords.
+
+
+Examples:
+
+	Shift a coordinate list from the default origin [0,0] to the origin
+	[10.5,30], saving the result in the file "newlist":
+
+		lintran list, x2=10.5, y2=30, > newlist
+
+	Apply a shift of +3.4 units in x, -1.3 units in y to the input list
+	read from the standard input, writing the output list on the standard
+	output:
+
+		(list stream) | lintran x2=3.4, y=-1.3
+
+	Take x and y from columns 2 and 3, rotate 45 degrees:
+
+		lintran list, xcol=2, ycol=3, angle=45
