I might add that gscreen is designed to support custom screens, in fact that is the point of it. It uses python if you need custom code to run your gui or just use the linuxcnc widgets. There is some start on docs for custom screens on the wiki Chris M

I advise against using linuxcncrsh. I used it for some of the tests i wrote for LinuxCNC and it presents a very limited, awkward interface to the controller. I suggest instead using the direct interface, either via Python (for an example see tests/toolchanger/m61/test-ui.py) or via C (for an example see src/emc/usr_intf/halui.cc). That will take care of interfacing to the LinuxCNC controller, then you can tack whatever GUI you like on top. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
