Title: Merge G-codes ?
Post by: Yianni - VJ - Glaux on March 17, 2011, 08:56:07 PM

Hey guys,

Does anybody know of a utility that allows you to pick 2 or more G-codes and merge them into 1 ?

Can you not just copy and paste one into the other?

How do we do that? :)

No, seriously, am I the only one who sees the benefit from a utility that stitches separate G-codes in one?

Depends on the g-code.  If the first one sets up some modes that the second one doesn't override but just expects to be something else, you will have a problem.

I'm going to look into a smart cut and paste for my g-code editor that will take care of that problem.
