Well, there used to be a freeware program called WORM. it's a MSDos program,
 and lets you graphically draw "worms".. It does arcs, lines, and splines.
It's REALLY good for doing cables.

It outputs in CTDS format..

(CTDS is Connect the dots System..)

I have written a converter in Visual Basic, that will read CTDS, and output
to Moray UDO/Povray INC pairs. It handles multiple objects, and it works
pretty well . =)

A friend is also working on a PERL script to do the same thing.

If people are interested, I'll put both on my site.
(worm is about 400K zipped, and the converter, without the VB5 Runtimes is
only 50k)
