H Steve,
Welcome.
Unless they fall into a specific category it is best to post any questions as a New Topic in the General Section.
One of the best free software's for Gcode creation is F-Engrave; http://scorchworks.com/Fengrave/fengrave.html and one of the best paid software's is Vectric; http://www.vectric.com/ but there are lots of others out there to choose from.
