Re: [sudo-discuss] pick&place machine .csv file dissection

Morgan, i am confused, what's the difference between pcb2charmhigh and pos2charmhigh? I have pcb2charmhigh which i got from github here: https://gitlab.com/morganrallen/pcb2charmhigh.git/ i can't find the source to pos2charmhigh because gitlab doesn't seem to allow me to view the source, if it's even there, without creating a login... which I don't want to do, partially because they're trying to force me to. Anyway, I forked pcb2charmhigh to a sudoroom repository here: https://github.com/sudoroom/pcb2charmhigh so that I and Miloh and others can collaborate on it. Will you be updating the pcb2charmhigh repo on gitlab? At least I can pull from there. thank you, -jake On Sun, 9 Apr 2017, Morgan Allen wrote: I worked on a thing today. > https://www.npmjs.com/package/pos2charmhigh > > (roughly) converts KiCAD .pos files to something that resembles the > Charmhigh CSV file.
