Hi sneather,

> He did ask me whether I could handle WIRE format, as supposedly that's rather native for Alias.

Yeah it's the native file format for Alias. It's not very often supported by other software, I don't think that it's a publicly documented file format.

I seem to vaguely remember something with PolyTrans being able to do it:

It's more likely that IGES or STEP would be the way to go.
