Anyone out there using Stepster as your control program? What do you think of it? How does it compare to TuboCnc?

I am/was the last maintainer of Stepster - it's dead - I have no time/interest in working on it - heck, the Powerbasic compiler (dos version) I was using to maintain it isn't even loaded on any of my computers anymore

Stepster was an awsome program many years ago.
It was one of the first programs that made Hobby CNC possible.
When Turbocnc came out it left Stepster somewhat outclassed because of the 8-Axes controll capability of Turbocnc.
Other then that I think they where fairly similar.
Over the years the lack of development have left Stepster fall further back.
Still I always liked playing around with Stepster the fact that it is written in Basic with sourcecode available for free gives everyone a chance to test if they can improve apon.
I never had the luxory of having enough time to work all the little bugs out on this program, altho I fixed some.
It is interesting to see how fast Stepster can run on a modern Computer, to bad Kevin Caroll the original author past away and all work on this great little Program has stoped.
