Re: simplify path feature?

Hi Jason et al,

I added two options to the ipelet: an option to convert a path to a 
close "spline" (it substitutes each line segment by a cubic Bezier curve 
with common tangents) and an option to directly simplify a given path to 
such a. I hope that it works well enough for your needs.

Best,
Philipp
