No, there is no way to dump whole arrays of coordinates. And, I'm afraid, this 
will never be implemented. There are many other tools to do this, ranging from 
bc to LibreOffice Calc or LabPlot.

The main purpose of KmPlot is plotting the curve and allowing its user to 
analyze it in the basic level (roots, extrema, tangent line, derivatives and 
integral). The status bar contains all important data without the need to 
analyze thousands of raw numbers.
