Thank you, Giovanni. Replacing pref_edit.py fixed the problem with saving preferences.
I've been playing around a bit.
I've now figured out how to start NativeCAM in standalone mode.
It works for me by running ncam.py  with  '/usr/share/linuxcnc/gladevcp/NativeCAM/ncam.py -i /home/cnc/linuxcnc/configs/sim.gmoccapy/gmoccapy.ini -c mill'.

You could run ncam from any folder by creating a link in a folder which by deffault have a command path.

To do that you could type:

sudo ln -s /usr/share/linuxcnc/gladevcp/NativeCAM/ncam.py /usr/bin/ncam

Then you can call ncam from the terminal like any other command and from any folder.

Giovanni
