I need to get access to the geometry of some objects that were created
in a CAD program. The CAD program can write an IGES-format file,
which is a text-based graphics exchange format. Presumably, this file
can be parsed to give NURBS control points for the object or objects I
need.
I am currently doing this by hand - opening the CAD program and
manually digitizing (i.e. writing down) the coordinates of the object
surface, etc. It is tedious, error-fraught, and mind-numbing.
Have any of you generous and creative folks solved this problem before,
and can you point me in some direction that might bear fruit???

Thanks
