What do you want the software to do? LinuxCNC can control the machine. Are you asking what you would use to provide input to LinuxCNC?

Are you looking for CAD, CAM or CNC?

It must be very easy for operator. He just will enter length of rail press calculate and start.

What is the input data that the calculations are based on? (Solid model? Cutting list? Paper drawing?)

This might be possible to do in a custom GUI entirely inside LinuxCNC. See a similar example (part finished) here:

Input is shape of cutting which could be gcode, length of hand rail, pitch and min distance from ends of hand rail to edges of cutting.

Does a table-entry in the GUI like my example get close?
