Hi eric,
> Is there a subroutine that will calculate the area enclosed by a flat closed curve?
Not anything built in, but you might try Max's volume script, I think it also does surface area. You may need to use Construct > Planar to build a surface out of your flat closed curve before using the script. You can find the script here: http://moi.maxsm.net/media/files/ get the one that starts with CVolume.

Sorry no, not likely in the near future, I'm still in the process of working on the port to a 64-bit and Mac native version first. Probably at least a couple more months yet before that step is complete.
