README file for AXIS, a front-end for LinuxCNC
Copyright (C) 2004, 2005, 2006 Jeff Epler <jepler@unpythonic.net> and

ABOUT AXIS
==========

AXIS is a front-end for LinuxCNC with file preview and live plot.

The AXIS user interface is intended to be self-documenting by use of
familiar controls and plain language on tooltips and menus.  A few less
evident features are documented by Help > Quick Reference.

Python 2.4 or newer with Tkinter is required.  Hardware accelerated
OpenGL is nice, but not required.


INSTALLATION
============

AXIS is now automatically built with LinuxCNC when the required packages
are installed.
