  Do you want to view these points on top of your model using LSPP? In that case, you can use free format (as shown below), or structured format.
  $id, x-coord, y-coord, z-coord
  1,0,0,0
  2,10,10,0

    I will use the points to import them. Then construct planes and mesh them. I did what you mentioned in .xyz file but when I import them using pt2msh, it gives me this message (cannot point cloud to mesh)
