Gmoccapy - A new screen for linuxcnc

Have look at this document, it contains all the information that you need to install from scratch.

wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Instal..._the_source_with_git

How did you install the version you are running?
What version do you have now installed?

Please check the WIKI for Update infos. If there are still questions, do not hesitate to ask.

P.S. If you are brave, you can also follow: Update to 2.7 buit you will not get the very last version. Actual package contains 1.3.0. So better use git version.

Good evening,

i have a fresh install ( 1 months ) with 2.6 live Debian. on a DVD

Actually Gmoccapy is 1.2 and i am afraid of STOP PAUSE crash.

I have try to play with git, but no result.
so git is installed, and all is update, but Gmoccapy is alway 1.2

i will try harder tomorrow morning.

Thank you very much.


One question regardind calling a gcode file.

My cam software (windows computer ) print a barre code for each sheet of a job, ( 1 job = +/- 50 sheet = 50 gcode )
i would like to store all the file on a server, and use a barre code reader to call it instead of using the mouse.

Gmoccapy do not allow me to see the last file i have run.
And Sometime i run tow time the same Gcode...

Hallo papaours,

if git is installed, just do:

If you installed allready the depencies and cloned git, just ignore the steps.

gmoccapy allows to set up the start dir and also a jump to dir to select files, so if the files to use are all in the same dir, just set the jump to dir to that path.

Thank you, i will try it.

Hi Norbert,

Will that be 2.6.3 then, or 2.8? I had a go on my spare machine (following the instructions for Debian on the Wiki page) and got 2.8 pre.
