Donations to an emc2 entity (whatever form it would have) are basicly hard
to manage.
Sure the donor can suggest what the money should be used for, but still
someone has to decide specifically who should get the money.
I find that as a potential source for tensions. (lots of bad scenarios

Good Morning,
Is there a configuration parameter that will change the default .ngc
suffix for gcode file to a specified suffix?

If you're using AXIS, you can add to the default suffix list by
specifying
[FILTERS]
PROGRAM_EXTENSION = .xyzzy My favorite extension
when you do this, .xyzzy files will be shown by default, and you'll be
able to double-click to open them.
However, this does not change the behavior when

For whatever my opinion may or may not be worth, I think well enough

In your .ini file, such as ~/emc/configs/my-mill/my-mill.ini. If you

I just saw a comment by the 'owner' of Ubuntu.

Has anyone yet done a modification to AXIS which will
properly display the effects of using a rotary axis? For

and want to cut a simple circle say 50mm dia by rotating the
rotary axis against a stationary cutter, I can, in MDI,

Stuart is right, at the rate EMC2 is expandling and improving in a few

I was hoping one of the guys who do AXIS stuff would pick this up. If you knew

You do not need a bounty system or anything along that line. A
commercial venture can be formed and the development of the software
can be co-sponsored with services provided. Software enhancements
would have to be shared as it is right now. No harm done, and the best
