I gave it a try on one of my PC's, it installed vut did not run, will try again whenever i get some time.
This was on Linux Mint 20.?, not sure what exact version that PC is using.
Probably Python versions as Mint uses quite old versions of it.
It seems to be very nice and easy to use, thank you.

A small issue, straight leadins or leadouts start on the wrong side of the cut, swapping the additions and subtractions in if lead_in_active == "straight": and if lead_out_active == "straight": appears to work ok.
Arcs seem to be ok.

That should work! :)
Did not check it yet as it did not work on Mint 20.2, now i have to see if it works on Mint 21 and i also have a laptop with the official 2.8.4 ISO installed.
