hot wire cutting

Hi Tobias,

I guess hot-wire cutting should be the same as laser cutting (no vertical moves, just toggling the cutter/laser). Currently we are doing this with PyCAM and some script magic based on “sed” applied to the GCode file.
The next release of PyCAM will contain a postprocessor for laser cutters. This should fullfil your specific needs, as well …

cheers,
Lars
