If I remember correctly, the "cifplot" program from Berkeley has an option
to write out a "clean" CIF file which among other things has everything
defined before called.  This program has been widely distributed, including
sources, for over 5 years.  It's even possible that your own CIF plot
program is based on this code, and still has that option.  Read the man page.
