languages are different. familiar is a perspective. i agree what you propose is more C like APT is very traditional in CadCam, yet is unfamiliar to you So your flexible mechanism gets tied to your preferences (thats not a a bad thing ) but separating the effects ( linuxcnc internal commands ) from the path descriptor ( gcode, turtle, CL, Apt, Step ) is a _very_good_ idea. regards TomP ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android is increasing in popularity, but the open development platform that developers love is also attractive to malware creators.
