development of a qt version of ncam

The big problem is I never used Ncam so don't know how/what things worked before.
Some things work now but really I could use someone who knows the program to audit and prioritize what part to work on. That would help and motivate me more.

I created a branch with the updated original version, so you can have a look how it supposed to work.

You find a gmoccapy sample config running in a RIP environment here: github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commits/nativecam
You need to run 'git submodule update --init --recursive' because I added NativeCAM as a submodule...

Ok thanks I'll look at that!

Chris, I guess you have already heard of viaconstructor ( github.com/multigcs/viaconstructor ).
If not you may can get some inspiration of the graphical part ... and it is also using Qt

I am still running my mill on 2.7, so I guess I should install an old version of NativeCam and try it out.

No I didn't thank you - looks interesting.
I compiled your Ncam branch and it is helping for testing my work. Thanks.
