Re: generic post processor downloads?

There should be several basic posts in the mastercam Lathe module.

Pretty much the only differences will be tool changers and other non-
supported G and M codes.

I think the stock mplfan.pst post will work.

If your Mastercam doesn't have the lathe module installed, ask your
network admin if you are licensed for it, or if it is installed but
no icon is present, what the path to it is.
