xyz=d3affinetrafo(XYZ,p,dir,FileOut)
function xyz=d3affinetrafo(XYZ,p,dir,FileOut)

% D3AFFINETRAFO performs an affine 3D-transformation with 12 parameters in either transformation direction
%
% xyz=d3affinetrafo(XYZ,p,dir,FileOut)
%
% Also usable:   Transformations.mat   (see beneath)
%
% Inputs:  XYZ  nx3-matrix to be transformed. 3xn-matrices are allowed, be careful with
%               3x3-matrices!
%               XYZ may also be a file name with ASCII data to be processed. No point IDs, only
%               coordinates as if it was a matrix.
%
%            p  The vector of transformation parameters [x0 y0 z0 a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 a6 a7 a8 a9] with
%                 x0 y0 z0 = translations [unit of XYZ]
%                 a1 to a9 = linear affine parameters
%               p may also be a string with the name of a predefined transformation stored in
%               Transformations.mat.
%
%          dir  the transformation direction.
%               If dir=0 (default if omitted or set to []), p are used as given.
%               If dir=1, inverted p' is used to calculate the back-transformation (i.e. if p was
%                  calculated in the direction Sys1 -> Sys2, p' is for Sys2 -> Sys1).
%
%      FileOut  File to write the output to. If omitted, no output file is generated.
%
% Output:  xyz  nx3-matrix with the transformed coordinates.
%
% Systems need to be right-handed, i.e. [x y z].
% Parameters may be determined using the helmertaffine3d function.
