hello Michel,

i downloaded your program to try it out, since it looks pretty.

some things that were not immediately obvious when building the program:
you must compile fltk-1.1.7 with configure --enable-localjpeg 
--enable-localpng --enable-localzlib

you must use an emc2.1 branch that has been built, not just the source

some suggestions:
use sensible default values for spindle, roughing %, z safe/retract
for example, 2000rpm, 50%, z0+5mm

calculate feed from spindle speed and chipload

it's not clear what Z finish is supposed to mean. maybe "finish pass depth" 
would be better

some bugs:

machining time is wrong. it says 26' 27" for my test program, but it took 
less than 6 minutes to run the program. 
( http://fenn.dyndns.org/pub/irc/test.dsurf )

clicking 'down arrow' in spindle rpm goes to 9999999 instead of 0 or 
negative

tool diameters are not saved in stand-alone mode. maybe the numbered tools 
should be grayed out in stand-alone mode? it shouldn't start on tool 0 at 
least

libnml.so isn't getting linked in for some reason.
ldd dsurf: libnml.so => not found

libnml.so does indeed exist:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fenn fenn 962635 2007-09-27 21:06 /pub/emc/emc2.1/lib/libnml.so

this is what 'make' does:
g++  -o dsurf dsurf.o dsurf1.o dsurf2.o dsurf3.o f_dsurf1.o tabwdesc.o 
dsurf1_png.o dsurf_html.o dr_help_view.o dremc.o ../tinyxml/tinyxml.o 
../tinyxml/tinyxmlerror.o ../tinyxml/tinyxmlparser.o ../tinyxml/tinystr.o 
../utils/drutils.o ../utils/mg_png_image.o /usr/local/lib/libfltk.a 
/usr/local/lib/libfltk_images.a /usr/local/lib/libfltk_jpeg.a 
/usr/local/lib/libfltk_png.a /usr/local/lib/libfltk_z.a 
/pub/emc/emc2.1/lib/libemc.a /pub/emc/emc2.1/lib/libnml.so 
-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXpm -lX11

ideas anyone?
