POINT_ROTATE <point number>, <xc>, <yc>, <angle>

Rotate a point about defined co-ordinates and a defined angle.

<point number>: The number of a previously defined macro point.
<xc>: X co-ordinate of the center point.
<yc>: Y co-ordinate of the center point.
<angle>: angle value, either degrees or radians. Positive angles indicate a CCW direction, negative for CW.

Use the DEGREES or RADIANS commands to switch between the two angle modes.
