[Gmsh] Mesh from Contour-Points

Hi GMSH,

I have a giant set of contours defined by these control points.
And my goal is to generate triangular surface from them. (like
the ones from S.K. Choi and Javad Fatemi)

//    Contour #0
Point (    0) = {   4.193,  -40.756,  -24.000, 0.006};
Point (    1) = {   3.194,  -40.538,  -24.000, 0.006};
Point (    2) = {   2.214,  -40.264,  -24.000, 0.006};
...
//    Contour #29
Point ( 2480) = {  41.161,   46.743,   18.000, 0.006};
Point ( 2481) = {  40.042,   46.124,   18.000, 0.006};
Point ( 2482) = {  38.939,   45.612,   18.000, 0.006};
//    Contour #N
...

Following the tutorial, I found that constructing the mesh from lines
and then line loops is not ideal to me (I don't have space for the
generated .geo file) Could you please suggest the alternative shortcut
of doing this. (At least what people normally do)

Thank you.
