In nano or geany, from my wet ram. The only helper I regularly use is arcgenm18.py and the Documentation.pdf open to the gcode pages on another workspace. Well over 3/4ths of the gcode in my nc_files directorys is straight out of my wet ram and fingers. How did you think I was coming up with some of the more off the wall ideas? I see something I'd like to fix, and I'm asking here how to go about it. And I generally get accurate, helpfull answers from you, thank you. A lot. But the next Q is for Seb K. I just moved a copy of pycam-master.zip I just downloaded (which doesn't seem to be in debian later than wheezy) to the rpi4, running the raspian version of buster in armhf flavor. Will it build and run on the armhf? Or am I the designated lab rat? Thank you. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
