Does anyone know if the Denford software (QuickCAM 2D, QuickCAM 3D or QuickCAM Pro, QuickTURN 2D) is compatible with mach 3 ?
ie, is there a Mach3 post processor for Denford software ?

We haven't really been asked much for one, but I have created a basic one here...

As you can see, the simulation in the demo version of Mach3 appears to work, but it's never been tested on a machine.
(the example in the screenshot was created in QuickCAM 2D Design and a follow toolpath created)

Just made a slight change to allow more comments (using the % sign to tell Mach to ignore the rest of the gcode line)
