some more progress on direct connection of the RPi and my azteeg(similar to arduino+ramps)
next step, connect a nema17 steppermotor and parse the CW gcode file and of we go..
cheers,

Does your program support sending GCode directly? If you typed "G01 Z4.0", would the printer be able to interpret that?

Hi PomeroyB,
so the program will support direct GCode commands from browser.. for example when you want to move your z-axis to zero position.
what it will also do is it will interpret generated GCODE from CW for example a snapshot of a file of CW below.
Cheers,

hi Cncbasher,
there is, but the codes is really really alpha.. and allot of features are still missing..
you sure you want to check it out already?

Sorry for the revive but its relevant to the thread that is referenced by others.
Actively working on a rpi controller.
Getting it stable this week (exciting stuff!).
Will make a thread when ready.
For those interested taking a look:

news update:
so after trying out many things on the raspberry pi i just wanted to re-use as many of CW code as possible, so i did give Mono a try, but the framebuffer access is just very limited.
so i reverted back to my python main thread and c programming back end program.
Please have a look at the video maybe i need to upload it to youtube
so what is working:
Creation Workshop gcode parsing
Loading png files (generated from a slicer.. ie. CW)
executing the gcode and showing the png's at the specified time interval
Connection to the arduino..
the raspberry pi doesn't have to start X - i run my program from the command line, and control the python program via the web browser.
via the webbrowser:
- upload zip file
- prepare zip file.
- start print
cheers,
hp
