RedSnapper Questions

I was wondering if anyone else has been using RedSnapper at all. I can't seem to find almost any mention of anyone using it. I have used it a little bit and it seems to be a great program, especially the newly released version. Is there some sort of big problem with this software that i have not yet encountered. I have been waiting for a stronger stepper to arrive before i can do my first real print with RedSnapper, but using my weak stepper i was able to get reasonable results. I would be very interested to hear other peoples experiences with RedSnapper.

I have played with it, its very fast and user friendly, never used the gcode though, Skeinforge has more tweeks and settings at present but as it evolves?.

Where can one download this? I would love to try it out.

I think the search term is 'repsnapper'... p not d.

Wow, how did i not notice that.

-Adventure here a link to the toolchains page. RepSnapper can be downloaded there
http://reprap.org/wiki/Toolchain

Make sure to download the version in the drivers section. The one is the gcode section does not have the ability to print.

I think something wrong with the G-code output. Its not clear when starts and when stops a segment.

Here is a part of the generated output:

From this only each second line is printed.:-(

Thoughts?

Maybe because every other line is identical!
