So, have a spreadsheet of words to be engraved on several dozen identical parts.
I am pretty sure that I can write a Python script to convert the words to G-code using F-engrave in batch mode (I have done it from the CL, so Python parsing CSV would just be a layer on top of that). But what's the best way to get that G-code in to LinuxCNC and executed? F-engrave can be used as an input filter, but I don't think that is useful here. I think I want to parse together a G-code program using output from F-engrave, then push that to LinuxCNC (Touchy interface, to make it more difficult :-) Thoughts? -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
