NativeCAM is Features renamed

How are you using it then ? Are you using drilling modes G73, 81, 82 or 83 ?
One option is using a Drill Change and not activate, this will not ask for a tool change but set the feed, speed and mode but you have to use the drilling subroutines
What is your p.o.v. on this ?

I think I can solve this

I finished loading a new system with the most recent live cd and applied all updates. I successfully loaded that python thing. I downloaded your latest release an hour or so ago and extracted it to my home dir. I found that extracting it to /mark resulted in dir structure of /NativeCAM-master/NativeCAM-master/then_all_of_your_files.
The only thing in the first NativeCAM-master directory was the subdirectory NativeCAM-master with its sub directories and files. So I renamed the directory structure, moved the files and deleted redundant subdirectory. So now my structure matches what you show in your mill.ini file /mark/ncam/then_all_of_your_files.
Not sure what significance this has but I was able to load the embedded version into axis sim.
Thought I would provide a status report of my findings.

Sounds like you downloaded a zip file, isn't it ?
Next time, try to clone. In a terminal in the directory of your choice
copy this command : git clone github.com/FernV/NativeCAM.git
Updates will be much simpler

I assume that command gets pasted into a terminal window? I tried it and got the following error.
george@toshiba:~$ git clone github.com/FernV/NativeCAM.git
fatal: repository 'github.com/FernV/NativeCAM.git' does not exist
george@toshiba:~$

It appears the the leading "https://" before "github" was removed when I posted
You can copy the address from the green button on that github site but do not forget the
"git clone "
In fact, you can use your home directory ~/
A sub-directory NativeCAM will be created and the whole process takes seconds
To have the latest updates you change directory to NativeCAM and issue :
git pull origin master
and do it anytime
If someone knows a better command to update, please correct

It seems it did not remove the link before
Try with arg 'c' first, it will give the name of the link it is trying to create
