Hello everyone I am asking for help and insights with installing plasmac to a base machine configuration of a cnc plasma table. I tried installing plasmac using the terminal and following instructions however when I enter the command to start the configurator it says "python: command not found". so I use the alias command to point python to python3 and then I get this second error "no such file or directory". I then checked where my path was pointing to in file explorer and there is no plasmac folder in the by_machine folder and also searching the whole system shows no configurator.py file. I just want to install plasmac any help or insights are greatly appreciated!

PlasmaC is not being developed anymore, so last version of LinuxCNC with PlasmaC was 2.8, i think.
From 2.9 and up, QtPlasmaC is used, and that does not use the configurator.py to set up the machine, now that can be done in PncConf.
There is also PlasmaC 2 i think in the new versions that looks similar to PlasmaC but does not use Axis GUI.
