I have used UltraEdit for 4 years, it is by far the very best for cnc editing. Ian, the UEdit author has a millgcode "worfile" on his website for downloading. There are several languages that are in the default wordfile.txt, I don't use any of them so I backed the default wordfile up and renamed MillGCode to be "wordfile.txt". It belongs in the c:\programfiles\ultraedit directory. Open UltraEdit, look under Advanced - then Configuration which will open up access to the Syntax Highlighting page, Look for Language and Select MillG Code, then you can configure your G Code to be color highlighted if you wish. This is just one of many nice functions in UEdit. I also use and endorse Discriminator, it has backplotting and built in G Code color functions. Discriminator was written by a Smartcam User and has available a quick access set of Smartcam macro commands. Both are quite good. Michael
FWIW, I have attached the wordfile.txt named MillGCode, you can configure it however you like. All of Ian's wordfiles and macro startup files can be found at this URL http://ultraedit.com/downloads/additional.html /L1"Mill G Code" Line Comment = // Block Comment On = /* Block Comment Off = */ Escape Char = \ String Chars = "' File Extensions = C CPP CC H HPP AWK /Delimiters = ~!@%^&*()-+=|\/{}[]:;"'<> , .? /Function String = "%[a-zA-Z_]*)" /Indent Strings = "{" /Unindent Strings = "}" /C1 G40 G41 G42 G68 G69 G70 G71 G90 G91 G92 G93 G94 G99 /C2 G00 G04 /C3 G01 /C4 G02 G03 /C5 G17 G18 G19 /C6 M00 M01 M02 M03 M04 M05 M06 M07 M08 M09 M13 M14 M19 M26 M60 /C7 G80 G81 G82 G83 G84 "Hopple, Bob" wrote: > Ultra edit is a very good editor I use the compare feature to compare > downloaded and uploaded programs works great > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Dave Hayden [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2000 8:26 AM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: [mfg-smartcam] MS Word as text editor? > > > > You may also want to check out UltraEdit at ultraedit.com .
