Hello John, I apologize for sounding that way. The back story is that I have been using Linuxcnc/EMC for many years in a production environment. Actually, all of my shop equipment runs Linux, so I know (at least in my situation) what works and what does not. I have been seeing discussions about Linuxcnc in other places, in particular CNC Cookbook, and the number one issue is that it behaves more like a hobby tool, than a tool that you would trust to run your shop floor. I am forced to agree with this impression, but the facts are different, Linuxcnc is extremely reliable and capable of running nearly any machine, but it requires more than an integration job to do so. This is where I was thinking I could be of use to the project. I have been using Linuxcnc for years, I thought I might get on the other end and contribute back.
After reading my posts, I see the comment I made about the tool editor looks bad. To clarify, I was asking for someone to explain the rationale behind the way that it works if I was not understanding it properly. Also, I was pointing out the issues I was experiencing using it possibly because of my lack of understanding. Also, I might point out that the start of this conversation, I was asking if anyone else was working on heading in the embedded direction so I could share notes and assist them directly. If there is nobody doing this, I would be happy to start contributing here. -Neil- On Sat, Dec 26, 2015 at 3:32 PM, John Thornton <j...@gnipsel.com> wrote: > At first it felt like you were coming across a bit strong and demanding > but the more you talked you calmed down... > > The wiki has good and bad points as does the forum and the mailing list. > To cover all areas you would need to use all three. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
