That's one thing I like about Vcarve - it is almost idiot proof. It can get a bit tricky because of the different requirements of each control software application. I can also save Sketchup files as STL and convert those to gcode. I can also use Fusion 360 to save the gcode file for Mach3. So, I guess the issue is whether or not your modeling software can convert to gcode and you can set it up for all the particulars of your machine/controller software. Any editor can open the file and edit/modify since it is just text. So, after I finish the design, Vcarve converts the model into gcode and saves the file as an ASCII. They have a configuration file that knows how to talk Mach3. I use VCarve to create 99% of my gcode files. I am using Mach 3 to control my CNCRP machine.
