"""Extract points from a dxf file, and save in csv format

Usage:
  dxf_to_csv.py [-h] [-n LAYER_NAME] [-l] dxf_name

Positional arguments:
  dxf_name       path to dxf file

Optional arguments:
  -h, --help     show this help message and exit
  -n LAYER_NAME  name of layer
  -l             show list of layers

Examples:

Show available layers:
> python dxf_to_csv.py drawing.dxf -l

Convert all layers:
> python dxf_to_csv.py drawing.dxf

Convert specific layer:
> python dxf_to_csv.py drawing.dxf -n LAYER_NAME
