pocket.py direction switch was created by galfenol
I was just testing the python G-code generator pocket.py available on the linuxcnc wiki at
wiki.linuxcnc.org/uploads/pocket_V1.py
and observed that the Direction button (with options CW or CCW) has no effect.
I can't speak Pythonese, so this will need attention from someone who does.
The default direction (CCW) happens to be the opposite of what my mill would appreciate.

You might contact the author to see if he is interested in adding to his work.
Remember all the work on these are done by volunteers who have the need... and yes CCW for a pocket is backwards for a CNC mill.
