Hi Michael,

thank you, that's great and does exactly what I need. Getting point object coordinates by script is even easier to do . I'll also take a look at the reconstruct command.
@all
Thanks for the help with CAM software but I'm somewhat peculiar using my own very simple CNC controller based on an Arduino UNO. So no G-Code spoken here just up(); down() and go(x,y); :-) I don't need more to cut simple shapes with the router. Currently I'm using Illustrator and a script to get "tool path" data it works well but I like MoI better and it looks like I'm able to use it now for that.
Update: Just tried reconstructCurve with it's polyline option. It does exactly what I need!
