Mach 2 - gibbs post

[JpBinc]

Hi guys
Need help finding a post for mach2 from gibbscam.. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I talked with Gibbs and they want big bucks to write one for me. (Since I am not curent) Gibbs has a utility called post haste which I think can be used to roll your own but I though I might ask here before I put a ton of time into learning the post writer..
Thanks

Read the PostHaste Formatting Reference Manual, then find a template that posts something close to what you want. Rename the template and start editing. You might find an existing template in the library that is almost an exact match. PostHaste is pretty easy to work with and can be made to do some complex post processing. Unless you find someone who will give you a Gibbs post, this will be your alternative. You should be able to get the basics down fairly quickly and start posting in no time.

Go through your Mach2 documentation and see what basic functions/formats it will support. Some sequences like Helical Arcs are not in most of the existing templates and you will need to add them. If you are not sure about formatting certain things such as Helical Arcs you can still add the sequence and turn it on or off as required. Good luck.
