This is used to create a line parallel to a line on the right or left at a certain distance.

<line number>: The number of the point (1 to 100) to be defined.This is a number used by the macro to create other geometry.
<line>: This refers to a previously defined point (1 to 100), this should be given in the format P1, L8, C25.
<distance>: The value of the distance in inches or mm, depending on what it is set to (inches are default)
In this case if the distance is a positive value the new line will be to the left of the old line, if it is negative it will be to the right of the old line.
