Adding new machine workflow #6

Open PartyTonight opened 10 years ago

PartyTonight commented 10 years ago

Hi Matt, what is the workflow you use for adding new machines?

Here's a little write-up: https://github.com/mkeeter/kokopelli/wiki/Adding-a-new-machine

For any 2D or 3D subtractive machine, I'd recommend pattern-matching off one of the machines in koko/cam/machines/; ping me when you have more specific issues.

Also, Appendix B in my thesis has a heavily-annotated machine description file that might be useful.
