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

Hi Kim;

It is a shame that people ignore your code. I do not know what the
status of tcnc is but I would think that some of yoour code may work in
other environments. There is alot of development activity, in spurts
admittedly, with EMC. You might want to see if they would be interested.

Sometimes it is better to get your code out to the world even if the
platform isn't leading edge at the moment than to be hampered by
restrictive license agreements.

Thanks
Dave
