Anyone know a good tool for drawing simple 2D splines that can be 
interactively dragged about and then exported to POV (or at least give you a 
list of coordinates)?  It's doing my head in trying to work out the numbers 
by hand for a curve.

Try inkscape
http://www.inkscape.org

It has a PoV-Ray export function.
Though I don't know if there's a Windows version.
