Hi,

Is it possible somehow to import the x- and y-coordinates from a plain
text file (comma of white space separated) and create points? With
MapInfo is goes this way:

- Import the text file into MapInfo project
- Open tool "Create points"
- Answer the dialog questions:
* name of the layer where to import points
* symbol to be used for drawing
* text file column that holds x-coordinates
* text file column that holds y-coordinates
* multiplicator for x-coordinate value (defaults to 1)
* multiplicator for y-coordinate value (defaults to 1)
* check box for existing layers: append or overwrite

I use this feature every now and then. Would be extra nice to be able to
create points from non-spatial PostGIS and Oracle tables which have just
coordinates as numbers.
