Hi everyone,
I want to learn gcode, because I feel like it may be a good skill to have. I was wondering how I could do that. I have a Creality btw.
I right now want to learn how to push a button for a certain amount of times. This means that it asks for you for some parameters, and if writes the gcode for you. It is best if I can make it so it can press 2-3 buttons at once with only me inputting the parameters. This means that I can just leave it overnight and have it push buttons.
I already know some programming, because I learned java from a class. I may be completely wrong, but I am thinking of just writing a java program that takes in my input through console. Then it will put that into a a txt file. This is a part that I don't know, but can i turn that txt file into a gcode file? I see that cura turns it into a ufp. (Can't find anything for this.)
Also I know that this may break my printer if not careful. (How can I try to avoid this?)
Thanks in advance.
