For my use I don't see bypassing the interpreter. I would be happy to issue simple G code commands from the Script language. I don't mean to keep pushing the Mach model, but all VB can do from Mach is issue g code commands to the interpreter. With that dozens of 'wizard' screens have been written to do a wide range of tasks, from simple facing, to text engraving, pocketing, and hole arrays. I'm going off to read my new Python book, and follow some of the references Jeff offered. Maybe someday I will have an example of what I'm talking about. ron ginger ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
