Possibly through a driver. I think that Matrix Orbital might

All things are possible, but
Quick question. For a mill to move the tool bit from Point A to Point B the

and move each axis so a straight line is drawn between the starting and new
end points. Similarly, if an arc is programed the X,Y motion is
