Hi Brian, I don't think that it's possible to script that right now because the orient command relies on object snaps that it gets from the point picker and right now there isn't any way to generate a "picked point" that has object snaps on it by a script.

So for now anyway you would need to use just the plain non-scripted orient command to place those. When you check the "Make copies" box you can place a new copy with just 2 clicks (one left click and then one right click if you don't need to adjust the orientation), so you can place about 1 instance a second so for something like 30 points or so that should be possible to do in just a minute or so of work even non scripted.
