| 03:18.22 | dan_falck | hi |
| 03:18.32 | dan_falck | how's it going |
| 03:18.43 | *** join/#brlcad IriX64 (n=Who@bas3-sudbury98-1168054292.dsl.bell.ca) | |
| 03:18.46 | Twingy | I need to write the manual gui for gcam |
| 03:18.47 | dan_falck | oh oh |
| 03:19.11 | dan_falck | do you want some help with it? |
| 03:19.12 | Twingy | I'll use a standard treeview and expat I think |
| 03:19.19 | Twingy | you know gtk? |
| 03:19.27 | Twingy | or expat? |
| 03:19.33 | dan_falck | not gtk, but the manual for using it |
| 03:19.43 | Twingy | you do any coding? |
| 03:19.48 | dan_falck | python |
| 03:19.55 | Twingy | m'kay |
| 03:20.11 | dan_falck | I design tooling, not a programmer |
| 03:20.17 | Twingy | ah, k |
| 03:20.27 | Twingy | well, gcam is functional right now |
| 03:20.32 | dan_falck | cool |
| 03:20.34 | Twingy | you got time to give it a spin? |
| 03:20.37 | dan_falck | yes |
| 03:21.03 | Twingy | um, comtrash disabled my inbounds, should be on comcast worksplace next week, but how do you want tarball |
| 03:21.20 | dan_falck | tgz is fine |
| 03:21.24 | Twingy | how |
| 03:21.28 | Twingy | dcc? |
| 03:21.45 | dan_falck | dcc doesn't seem to work with this system |
| 03:21.56 | dan_falck | how about the web site? |
| 03:22.32 | Twingy | again |
| 03:22.38 | Twingy | comcast disabled my inbounds |
| 03:22.54 | Twingy | I am switching to comcast workplace with a static ip, but not until next week |
| 03:22.58 | Twingy | ...will that occur |
| 03:23.07 | dan_falck | ok, sorry |
| 03:23.14 | dan_falck | how big is it? |
| 03:23.23 | Twingy | what OS are you running |
| 03:23.47 | dan_falck | ubuntu, mac os x, redhat 7, debian |
| 03:23.53 | Twingy | k, works on all those |
| 03:23.58 | dan_falck | lot's of machines out in my garage |
| 03:24.09 | Twingy | windows/freedos/freebsd in the garage |
| 03:24.56 | Twingy | how about email |
| 03:25.07 | dan_falck | let's try it |
| 03:25.11 | dan_falck | dfalck@verizon.net |
| 03:26.39 | Twingy | sent |
| 03:27.18 | dan_falck | ok got it. Thanks |
| 03:27.27 | Twingy | scratch the src/gcam, make that ./gcam |
| 03:28.02 | Twingy | let me know after you got it running |
| 03:28.28 | dan_falck | Ok. I'm going to transfer it to a ubuntu box in my garage. I will let you know how things work out tomorrow. |
| 03:28.31 | dan_falck | thanks |
| 03:29.40 | Twingy | k |
| 03:29.42 | Twingy | here's how things work |
| 03:30.14 | Twingy | create a new project, insert a sketch, insert lines and arcs, insert lines and arcs into the extrusion to control depth |
| 03:30.39 | Twingy | export g-code to drive mill, double check the feed though |
| 03:33.17 | dan_falck | ok |
| 03:34.03 | Twingy | there are a handful of minor things that still need work |
| 03:34.23 | Twingy | so whenever I get around to finishing those I can release |
| 03:34.53 | dan_falck | I've been testing out lots of little bits of OS cam |
| 03:35.01 | dan_falck | small applications |
| 03:35.17 | dan_falck | that OpenCascade CAM thing was the latest |
| 03:35.37 | Twingy | I wasn't thrilled by OpenCascade CAM |
| 03:35.43 | dan_falck | I've been looking at aptos, which is command line driven but very powerful |
| 03:35.53 | Twingy | it's using alot of non-standard stuff to create something in a hurry |
| 03:36.28 | Twingy | I think you'll find the foundation of gcam is very solid, more than meets the gui |
| 03:37.27 | dan_falck | is it possible to extract info about lines and circles from it to pipe into another application? (not having looked at it yet) |
| 03:37.38 | dan_falck | lines and arcs I mean |
| 03:37.44 | Twingy | from the binary file, sure |
| 03:37.55 | Twingy | I haven't published the binary file spec yet |
| 03:38.19 | Twingy | it's highly extensible and backwards compatible oriented |
| 03:38.44 | Twingy | much thought went into it |
| 03:39.41 | Twingy | now I'm off, ttyl |
| 03:39.59 | dan_falck | let me compile this on the garage machine. I'll pop up under another irc name from there |
| 03:40.02 | dan_falck | thanks |
| 03:40.18 | dan_falck | bye |
