Thanks very much for the link!  I got it working with very
little trouble.  Push a button, it goes to the
desired location!

Thanks,

I have a question that is probably directed at you.  A while back I converted a 
C command line program that creates a bore at an XY location using IJ G-codes.  
 I think you were the author of the C program but I can't remember for sure.  
Someone as asked for the Lazarus Free Pascal source code which I have no 
problem making open source but I want to acknowledge where I got it from.  I 
clearly didn't write who gave me the code as comments and I can't find the 
original C code that I started with.

Here's a fragment of the pascal with the C code that wasn't changed just 
commented out.  Perhaps you or someone else will recognize it?


Yes, this is clearly derived from my old Pascal source. I still have this source for several programs in the original Pascal from 1998. This stuff probably was used to generate G-code for the Allen-Bradley control I used up to about that time.

But, I have now created a number of programs for the same purpose. These are all in c. So, I have versions for rectangular pockets, and rectangular "trepanning" where you just cut around the edge of the cutout, and then let the slug drop out. Then it makes a finish pass to bring the cutout to final size. I also have programs for round holes, "race track" ovals, and spot, drill, tap operations on grids and files of X,Y coordinates. I also have a program to do rigid tapping with combo drill/taps from an X,Y list. I also have a program for thread milling.
