Simple G-Code Generator

Hello everybody,

based on the python scripts in the wiki ( wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Simple...NC_G-Code_Generators ) I wrote a framework for small python g-code generators (for milling):
Download and screen-shots here

Currently (v3.3.0) it supports the following generators for milling:

• Outlining: Rectangle, Circle, Arc, Ellipse, Polygon
• Pocketing: Rectangle, Circle, Arc, Slot
• Drill: Matrix, Grill
• Engraving: Bezel, Text (all qcad fonts are now usable)

Other features:

• Save, load and insert projects.
• Edit values and order of generated objects (see above).
• Remote control of AXIS to load the generated g-code.
• Easy to add other generators or modify existing ones (at least this was the goal).

It is meant for hobbyist use only, so please do not expect the perfect path generation.
So this is my small contribution.....if anyone is interested to optimise, debug, add generator features, please let me know and I will write a short how-to. Any feedback is very appreciated!

Best regards
Erik

When I try and run it on LinuxMint 17.3 I get this error (I think it is an error)
: No such file or directory

Thanks for your feedback!
I was able to reproduce it: It is an issue with the encoding (end of line). Running dos2unix solved it. Still do not know how this happened. The configuration of the editor that I use seems fine.
Update on the way...

In windoze I use NotePad++, in Linux almost any text editor is fine.

Updated version 3.3.1 is available.

Works as it should. Thank you.
