General Mach Discussion / New to Mach3, would like someone to point me in the right direction
« on: January 28, 2012, 02:32:15 PM »
A friend has asked me to help him with extending Mach3 and I told him I'd give it a shot. I'm a professional programmer but I know very little about Mach3 other than what I've learned poking around. The first thing he would like me to do is write something that will allow him to select a set of G-code programs to load and run one after the other (or to run the same program x times), rather than having to load and run each one manually after the previous one finishes. Based on my research this seems doable, but I'd like some advice on how people would approach this - some VBScript attached to a button? A wizard? A plug-in? An external program using COM Automation?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike
