I guess since I use the CAM system to generate what I machine and it has
simulation I haven't seen a need. I usually just set Z high and then run the
real code. Plus LinuxCNC tells me right away if I'm going to move outside my
mechanical bounds due to the soft limits so that helps me figure out where to
put the x/y zero and where to clamp the work.
If I dragged an Ethernet cable out to the CNC PC how would I install this? I
know with a Pi or Beagle one just does:
sudo apt-get install _application_
And then it's ready to go.
Is there a quick and easy way to install additional 'features' like tool touch
off or this Dry Run so it's just naturally part of the user interface?
Seems, from reading these docs one has to do all sorts of text file editing to
make it work.

It looks really cool but I could see spending hours just trying to get it
working.
Thanks
