Look at Inteface/Object.h. Those are the operations you can do with an Object.

If you want to rotate/translate an object, you should do that with an Instance. Instance objects apply changes to the incoming rays and then pass them down to their child object.

Does instanceRST mean Rotate/Scale/Translate?

Yes, though the only one well tested is Instance. There were some modifications to Instance that should be pushed out to the other classes, but it hasn't happened yet.
