.FMS Export for X-Plane
I've made this little bookmarklet to generate X-Plane FMS file from rfinder's free router generator. This bookmarklet works in Firefox and Safari. But may work on other browsers which can handle JS code from bookmarklet.

× implemented the 'Attach altitude to waypoints' module :)
