You should never "translate" your models into .geo format: to load a
.step or an .iges file just open it... that's it.

The same way as for other models: all the mesh size functions are
available for all model types. To use the geo-type scripting commands on
a .step file, you can e.g. write a .geo file that contains
Merge "file.step";
// geo scripting command here...
