I'm doing some plotting of bathy data which has been supplied as a file of points, east, north and depth values on a 1m x 1m grid. The spec requires a dwg file with points reduced to a 4m x 4m grid. Is anyone aware of a file editor that will increase the grid size from 1m to 4m?

If the E and N values are whole numbers then you could drop the file into a spreadsheet, add an extra column to flag all entries where Emod4=0, Nmod4=0 and then sort on the flags to bring those entries to the top. Delete all other entries.
