I've noticed what appears to be a lot of new development of new GUIs for Linuxcnc lately. Here is an idea that I would love to see implemented in a new GUI, but I do not have the programming skills to implement it. For our production machines it would be nice for the supervisors to be able to set up a que of g-code files for shifts to run. The que would be a list of g-code files, and their location paths (possibly a network location), the number of repeats to run, and possibly a material to be used description. Then the machine operators would simply unload/load the machine, and press start, once the required number of runs is completed the gui would automatically load the next g-code file in the que and prompt the user what material to load for the next run. How hard might something like this be to implement?
