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!

Moved to PlasmaC section.

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.
