The names of the include files are not arbitrary. shapes.inc contains 
macros for dealing with shapes, rand.inc for random numbers, math.inc 
for math stuff, and so on.
Organizing by file wouldn't be very logical if things were just evenly 
spread around, but the files themselves are organized by purpose. If you 
want transformation macros, transforms.inc is the obvious place to look.
