okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about gscreen 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

gscreen — TOUCHY LinuxCNC Graphical User Interface 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

gscreen -ini INIFILE

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So gscreen is one of the Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) for LinuxCNC — yes it's giving touchscreen main character energy and honestly? iconic. ✨

It gets run by the runscript usually. that's it, that's the vibe.

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

• INIFILE — okay so the ini file is THE main piece of a LinuxCNC configuration. like, the moment. the blueprint. 🎀 But heads up — it's not the entire configuration, no ma'am: there are various other files that go with it (NML files, HAL files, TBL files, VAR files). It is, however, the most important one, because it's literally the file that holds the configuration together. It can adjust a lot of parameters itself, but it also tells LinuxCNC which other files to load and use. so it's both the brains and the group chat admin. 💜
