--- Quote ---Well after 3 years of work, 2 chairs, glasses, bad back, two PC's and no
life Mach4 has made it to the webpage. Mach4 is setup for 3 axis Mills
(it will run a 4th but we know it needs wrapping and so on added) in
this download without motion plugins. This was done so everyone could
test the new Screen interface MachGUI.exe. With this EXE you can play
with the new screen disign tools and see under the hood. We are working
with the motion people to get the motion devices tested and working 100%
before they are set out on the world. We don't know how long this
process is going to take but we will do it as quickly as we can.

Please feel free to comment on the screen and tell us what you would
like to see changed. The goal is to lock down the screen so we can start
making the operation manual for the screen/ software. We are working to
get some script examples done in the coming weeks and as soon as they
are done we will make an update to the Demo release on the web.

Please take the time to look at the Docs directory in the installed
folder. We have added an install and config manual as well as a Gcode
manual To help you with getting the software setup.

I am sorry this took us so long to get to this point but here we are ...
the end is near!
Thanks and have a great day.
