Bob,

Please see www.cnczone.com (The NC Plot Forum) for what I will be using
as a G code editor in the future. Please note how much effort I have
put into working with the developer of NC Plot and how well my
suggestions have been received by others as well as the developer of NC
Plot.

This software developer has the human / personal skills that someone
like GaryR so badly lacks. He also believes in public development
unlike GaryR. Apparently GaryR is now on yet another one of his Insane
Leave It To Beaver Jihads rather then working on his badly lacking /
non existent interpersonal skills. GaryR is apparently so insecure he
must hide the software he claims to have developed... it's more like he
doesn't want to have BD or myself laughing our ass off when we view it.
Our famous Usenet cop along with his sidekick Cliffy can't even figure
out KUEI's new posting place so they can stalk him and end CADCAM
software theft once and for all. LOL.

NC Plot will move forward in huge leaps and bounds next year and I hope
to move away from UltraEdit. Please note, I intend to contribute more
financial support to the developer of NC Plot shortly because he
deserves it.

Where I work I support multiple CADCAM systems. Please see the official
BobCAD technical support site (heavily moderated) to see how hard I am
working with users and what I personally started on the BobCAD tech
support forum:

http://www.bobcad.com/forums/

Note the positive comments from "The Bird" who works for BobCAD in CA.

It's a pleasure working with software developers who listen. GaryR
would not be one of them and I have a tremendous sense of satisfaction
from once again showing GaryR to be the loser he is by having more and
more of my suggestions get implementation in CADCAM products. I guess
the same could be said for Cliffy but I hardly notice or read what
Cliffy posts anymore. I do love reading and watching GaryR continue his
usual Leave It To Beaver Insane Jihad though. I'm surprised he's not in
the loony bin by now as he seems to have gotten worse with time off.
What a social misfit.

Perhaps with my comments the BanquerCADCAM website can get a badly
needed update ? ;>)
