good with the package installer.

grbl is best compared to the "Marlin" software that drives most 3D
printers. Both are very different from LCNC. Marlin and grbl are really
similar in many ways.
1) Marlin and grbl both run on Arduino, even the low-end "Uno".
2) They are VERY efficient because the configuration is done in the

That is totally on the person who put it on Github, there are plenty of ways
to illustrate and describe what a project is. That is what the Wiki section
is for. I find the terse method rather prevalent amongst FOSS projects. Just
like the 'who needs a manual, just read the code' approach.
This
rhaps that's what my question about touch screens is all about.

I always liked the rotary click wheel on many CRT monitors. Nice big wheel with
an offset dimple. Put fingertip in dimple and push to get the menu, spin to
highlight the configuration option then push. Spin again to select (for
example) vertical position then push and spin to move the raster up

I favor the Touchy interface. You will need jog buttons and any other
button that could possibly cause machine motion. Touchy was written to not
allow machine motion from the touchscreen.

I have a planar pct2235 and an asus vct229. Recommend the asus. The planar
has an issue where if you jog from the screen buttons and multi touch on
accident, the jog button latches and takes off.
