# CamCam

Given straight lines that form shapes.  The library will create gcode that will cut out those shapes.

This is a cam software to generate gcode for a cnc router.

# Usage

Currenlty its just a libary just add in this line to your Cargo.toml. You can remove the rev if you want a newer version.

```

[dependencies]

camcam = {  git = "https://github.com/Monksc/camcam", rev = "3a366bc0cb2b6144ba09e4155058b0b58259b7f1"}

```

We have an example of how to use the libary in main.rs. 

Eventually if somone wants a command line interface and have it accept a certain file like a .dxf file then we may.

Just ask with an Issue.

To get all the tool path settings we are looking at using a .toml file.
