Bill and the list,
I had downloaded AutoEditNC 3.0 some time before, but it didn't like my
ISO (? if that's what they are) cnc files from VectorCAD. FlashCut
likes them, MAXNC does too. In fact, even my CNC program (in progress)
can display it. Perhaps AutoEditNC likes Fanuc? *MOST* likely, I've
just not done something right.
I'd like to download a sample manual for the program, or maybe some
simple steps to enable me to view this file! I never could get much out
of "HELP" menus, unless I already know what I'm looking for!
VectorCAD/CAM comes with a simulator, so I will probably just use it (as
soon as I can read up on it). Guess I just like the *OLD* paper
documentation better. The Post-em's keep falling off the monitor!
Another idea for the tutorial section: What are all these standards
(Fanuc, ISO, etc)? Perhaps some good demo files (for us NEW little
machine guys).
