Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: List of Gcode "flavors"

Hi Ballendo

I have copies of the Heidenhain, ANC, and some of the NUM (Scheider) G codes.
Give me a few days - subject to work load - and I'll compile a list for you.
Will you be interested in the three digit codes or just the two digit ones ?

What about the 'canned cycles' - should these be included in any lists ?

Regards, Paul.
