Hi All and greeting from Italy. I wrote a program to create GCODE. Altough it's not written in basic it has a syntax that resemble basic. It's a command line interpreter without any user interface. Just write the code and run with the interpreter. In other words is a programming languar rather than an interactive application. The result will be the gcode.

This is a small example script :
--------------------------------------------------------
movetool(10, 20, 15) -- move the tool here...
ZSTEP = 1 -- increment in Z Axis is 1 mm
pocket (150, 100, 3) -- create pocket !
post() -- postprocess and create the GCODE.
------------------------------------------------------

If tihis script is run with the program,
a lot of GCODE will be printed on screen. The Gcode will machine a
rectangular pocket with a X size of 150 a y size of 100 and a depth of 3 mm-
Since ZSTEP is 1, three layers will be machined. the lower left corner of the
pocket will be placed in the point X=10 Y=20 and Z= 15

There are many other commands to create single motions..
or engrave texts using windows fonts.. or engrave DXF files.
If you want to try it.. please do ! It's free.

Have a look at the site www.exgenia.com the download link is on the main
page. And if you find some bug.. please let me know.

Thanks for reading this.
