Just what it sounds like: it transforms a vector. If you tell it to 
rotate, it will rotate. If you tell it to scale, translate, or apply a 
matrix to a vector, it will do it. You can also hand it a group of 
transforms in a transform {...} block.
I have never used it in this way, with the Reorient macro as a 
parameter, although I don't see why it wouldn't work. I will take a look 
at your code later and try to see what is going on.
