For various reasons, a user may need to get the shape's position and orientation (and other details) from within that shape's script. Assuming $S was the shape in the "#return($S)" directive, $S.loc, $S.orientation, and $S.name should return the proper information.

The functions shape.orientation() and shape.loc() return the relative values of the shape to it's parent. I'll add functions for the global orientation and location.

In the mean time you can use shape.GetGlobalTransform() and project the point (0,0,0) to find the global location. Global orientation is also possible but it takes a bit more math on the script's part.

Alrighty, thanks!
