That's what I've based my wizards on.  I started using that version, but had
trouble laying out the screen using python and the toolkit it used.  I ended
up writing a c++ version with preview, but that never got pass a beta
version.

My old lathe wizards are here...

https://github.com/ftkalcevic/LinuxCNC/tree/gwiz2/contrib/gwiz2/wizards/lath
e_wizards/lathe/3_turning

They are basically a...
* desc - description file
* config - list of parameters for the wizard
* *.ngc - gcode implementation of the wizard
* screen.png - image to display with the wizard.

There are other wizard projects that I've seen on the forum.

These are from 2011 or so.

Is anyone using them?
