Windows "SendTo" for Skeinforge
October 08, 2011 03:16AM
Hi, for everyone want a "SendTo" conversion:
* Hit windows key+"R" (windows Run)
* write "SENDTO" (or "shellconfused smileyendTo" for vista/7) in run window.
* sendto window now shows some files like mail, my documents....
* create new .cmd file for your skeinforge command. rigth click over a blank place and press new->cmd
* edit cmd just created.
this is sample cmd:
@echo off
cls
echo Converting %1 to GCODE
cd "C:\Documents and Settings\daniel\Escritorio\dist"
skeinforge.exe %1
Must change cd line for your skeinforge location. I have a skeinforge exe distribution. if use python mas change line "skeinforge.exe" for "start python skeyforge.py %1"
save CMD file.
Modify the file for use a icon attached at this topic.
close sendto window.
Now, over an .STL file, can use rigth mouse click for fast and easy conversion your stl file to gcode.
Hope help.
