FlatCAM: 2D Post-processing for Manufacturing
=============================================

(c) 2014 Juan Pablo Caram

FlatCAM is a program for preparing CNC jobs for making PCBs on a CNC router.
Among other things, it can take a Gerber file generated by your favorite PCB
CAD program, and create G-Code for Isolation routing. But there's more.





This  fork is  mainly for improving shell  commands.

added so far:

cutout
mirror
cncdrilljob


todo:

commandline  witch  reads  whole shell sequence from given file


example of  shell flow:

new 
open_gerber /home/sopak/kicad/ThermalShield/Gerber/ThermalPicoShield2-Margin.gbr  -outname Margin
open_gerber /home/sopak/kicad/ThermalShield/Gerber/ThermalPicoShield2-B_Cu.gbr  -outname BottomCu
open_excellon /home/sopak/kicad/ThermalShield/Gerber/ThermalPicoShield2.drl -outname Drills
