Feature request: accepting ngc files #195

Closed peteruithoven closed 13 years ago

peteruithoven commented 13 years ago

I can't image this isn't requested already, but it would be great if ReplicatorG would also accept .ngc files. At the moment we have to rename all the files comming from Pycam.

Please explain a bit more. What is a .ngc file? What are you renaming? What does the renaming accomplish?

peteruithoven commented 13 years ago

Pycam, a gcode generator, puts it's gcode into .ngc files. To open these in ReplicatorG we have to manually rename the files to .gcode files.

Thanks for the report.

We use lighthouse for issue tracking. I've opened a report at http://replicatorg.lighthouseapp.com/projects/66325-replicatorg/tickets/59-feature-request-accepting-ngc-files#ticket-59-2.

If you have anything else to add, please add it there.
