RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] G-Code Generators for us poor people.

Mark,

Okay, an unabashed plug here, take a look at GenGCode, a conversational
G-Code generator. Not intended to replace CAD/CAM programs, just a simple
way to generate G-Code for standard shapes.

Just follow the link to GenGCode.

Cheers,

Mark
