Is this a short term need Graham? I've been planning to add Compass format reading/writing and Therion writing to me cave data converter for a while. It might be another while before I get it done, but it is useful to know what there is a need for as it helps me chose what to prioritise.

Hi Graham,
You can import a Compass PLT file directly into Therion, but not a DAT as far as I know.
Best regards,

Thanks Jonny, I assume that would be by using similar syntax to that used to import Survex.3d files. However, as I would need to firstly write a project level .dat file in order to include the necessary co-ordinate information before generating the plt file, that makes it no simpler than my 'quick and dirty' fix of importing the original .plt file into Survex and then importing the resultant .3d file into Therion.
This also has the advantage of consistent syntax in my Therion file making it easier to see errors.
