Wes - Thanks so much for the offer. I have a feeling that I'll find most everything I need in Gmoccapy already, but if I do need to I will do so.

Still cogitating over this and think I might take you up on your offer. Even if only to have as much input/information as possible, in effort to keep open options and an open mind. I'll write you directly. Thank you!

Hi Norbert
I just noticed that the naming convention was not followed when you implemented the spindle speed stuff.
gmoccapy.spindle_at_speed_led should be gmoccapy.spindle-at-speed-led
and
gmoccapy.spindle_feedback_bar should be gmoccapy.spindle-feedback-bar

There are several such changes for the plasma screen but I will forward those to you later

Here are a few screen shots. I can get a few more once I get home. The system implements a "IPS" system to allow you to build a basic program right on the control. Its a shame Mach3 was so unreliable. I gave up after hearing mach4 was almost ready for many years.

Wow. Just "wow".

Wes, what do you do?

wes,
would you be kind enough to send me the screens , i'll try and stick my neck out and make a linuxcnc variant based on gmocappy
i have a few ideas to add as well

Pass = mach3ips

This is an installer for a windows box. Just install it and then you can look at the files. All images will be there. if you wanna see the screen install a demo of mach 3. There is also a screen editor available.

Here is just the images if you don't wanna install it...
