Anyone remember G-Code to Cad?

[ghyman]

I must be getting old and forgetful... There used to be a script posted somewhere on CNCZONE that would read a g-code program into autocad, and generate lines and arcs from the code.

Does anyone remember this?

"They" upgraded my autocad, and it got lost in the upgrade.

There's a different program, NCPlot, that will do this. The author is very acitve on CNCZone with development of this product.

Nothing against NCPlot; I'm sure it's a great program.
But I'm just looking for a quick and dirty (and yes, free) way to look at a cutter path on one job. And having it work internal to AutoCad is nice as well!
