CURVEmachine can be seen as MESHmachine's little brother. It aims to make POLY and NURBS Curve editing more flexible, and like MM's fillet toolset1, makes working with curve radii/arcs and non-circular blends essentially non-destructive.
The main tool in CURVEmachine that makes this possible, is the Blendulate tool, which allows you to create curve radii/arcs (or non-circular blends), change existing ones or merge them back to a single point again.
Beyond that, there are now more useful tools, such as Flick Symmetrize and Knife, and a number of other goodies.
CURVEmachine menu mapped to Y2 by default, and the Single Point Poly Curve tool in the Add Object menu
