simple user interface that allows for a quick creation and manipulation of nurbs curves.

create your own library:

* text controls will be combines

* combine 1 degree curves with 3 degree curve

* quickly override the objects color

* save the created curves as a python script to use elsewhere

* use the library to quickly generate a new curve
