Purpose
Use Set Local Transformation to insert a two-dimensional Set Local Transformation structure element into the open structure following the element pointer, or replace the element pointed at by the element pointer with a Set Local Transformation structure element, depending on the current edit mode.
When the graPHIGS API encounters this element during traversal, the graPHIGS API expands it into a 4 X 4 matrix as follows:
  -     -           -       -  
  |     |           |       |
  |a b c|           |a b 0 c|
  |d e f|  ----->   |d e 0 f|
  |g h i|           |0 0 1 0|
  |     |           |g h 0 i|
  -     -           |       |
                    -       -
Depending on the composition type, when the graPHIGS API
encounters this element during traversal,
the specified matrix replaces, is pre-concatenated
with, or is post-concatenated with the current local modeling
transformation matrix.
The resultant matrix, in conjunction with
the global modeling transformation, transforms all subsequent
primitives from the Modeling Coordinate (MC) system
to the World Coordinate (WC) system.
