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:

#!flatcam shell
