Bipe, can I take a dxf from compufoil and drop into your program then generate the .dat file? IS that what you are saying?
If so I want it!
Not yet, but I have something that I've been working on that will do that. PM me if you want it.
If you are willing to use Deltacad - I know, cad purists frown on this program - I have a special macro that exports cad drawn airfoils into .dat files.

Here are two screen shots. The first is the macro running in Deltacad. The second is the resulting .dat file imported into Profili's library, ready to use. For me, anyway, it works perfectly.
