Can you test the changes? I don't have PyQt4 on my development PC...

Just for the sake of it I commented out
if IN_AXIS:

As expected the button on not grayed but I have an error
AttributeError: 'MyWindow' object has no attribute 'g_code'

Am I running the program wrong? The Log button logs the commands without problems

I managed to get it working
I changed this

Code:

def sendToAxis(self):
		gcode = [str(self.gcodeList.item(i).text()) for i in range(self.gcodeList.count())]
		#sys.stdout.write(self.g_code.get(0.0, END))
		sys.stdout.write('\n'.join(gcode)+"\nM2") # Add M2 to the end so LinuxCNC is happy

The Position logger needs to be opened with LinuxCNC for the button to work. If you run it in a separate terminal it doesn't work. Maybe because it is a separate process..
And you need to use Gmoccapy if you want to move the machine to log different positions. AXIS does not work, it looks like it is frozen while position logger is open

Axis in LinuxCNC 2.8 works fine with the position logger running. However sys.stdout.write does not work with Axis.

I'm using 2.9.. And with the above changes and Gmocappy works great.. It would be better if I didn't need to close the program to publish the gcode but hey that is wishfull thinking

Thank you for the program. In my opinion it should be integrated in LinuxCNC
