blender-gcode-reader's Issues

Print log output & render with streaming data

Hi,

Thanks for writing blender-gcode-reader. I have couple of questions:
#1 Where can I see the output of the 'print' statements in the Blender UI (using 2.70 on Ubuntu 14.10) from the time the G-code file is loaded, and the animation actually runs?
#2 Is there a way to play the gcode animation from streaming data, instead of having to load the entire file first?

Appreciate your inputs.

Thanks!

Both ( and ; chars should be treated as the start of a comment

Looks a little inconsistant now - some things seem to look at one char and some at the other char.

Could be wrong, though - python's really not my gig. Feel free to call me an idiot and close this.

Does not appear to install

Blender Version 2.78a on OS X 10.12.2
Followed the directions to install. Message indicates that module has been installed. However the Add-on slot does not appear within the list.

support E-words (dimension) ?

Hi,

this is an excellent idea!

Just had a read, looks like you don't support E-words (dimension, extrusion length).

Any chance of using this (vs X/Y distance) to set path width?
