Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Huh, wanted Gcode files...??????

I've written a ton of extra code for tcnc. I've added a preprocessor
that utilizes symbols and added a pile of special canned cycles for
helical milling, thread milling, lathe threading, etc. I've also added
routines for multiple feedwheels (X,Y and Z.)

I also dramatically improved the single step UI so that users may debug
GCode more easily and improve their productivity when machining one off
parts.

I've offered this code to the tcnc development team and it has been
ignored. It is my understanding that tcnc is not open source and users
do not have the right to release code to other users.
