Exactly. I can’t get into all that !

I do use UCCNC but the gcode generated is basically G0, G1, and G2, with some M commands for the spindle start stop and code rewind. I’m hoping that is fairly universal for most controllers. I didn’t see the commercial conversational software requesting which controller was to be used so they would tailor the post to suit, but I might have missed it. The idea was to keep it simple to be more universal in terms of generated code.
