PCB Milling Woes - looking for PCB CAM software recommendations
What I've tried so far: * pcb2GcodeGUI: most recent Windows version is from 2016 (there is source code from 2021, but I can't get it to compile), and it is very rudimentary in its functionality * FlatCam: most recent Windows version is from 2020, great functionality in theory, miserable UI, crashes if you look at it the wrong way, no "Undo" (ctrl-z). * GERBER_X3/ggeasy: my goto right now. It's basically FlatCam with reduced functionality, but much better UI, and crashes infrequently enough to not bother me, also no "Undo" (ctrl-z)

Esp8266 pulse counter. Milled PCB.
I am using pcb2gcode for generating my files for the engraver. https://github.com/pcb2gcode/pcb2gcodeGUI . For commanding the mill I am using Candle. https://github.com/Denvi/Candle . This works very nicely.
