[Therion] mixing local and global coordinate systems

[Andrew Atkinson]

I have not tried this with plt but with 3d, however according to the
thbook it should work.

import file.plt calibrate [<x> <y> <z> <X> <Y> <Z>]

Where coordinates in the imported file are shifted
from lower-case coordinates to upper-case coordinates.

I hope I have understood what you are trying to achieve, if not a sample
file might help
