    Is there any other CAM software than Chilipeppr that supports Due+G2?
    Would be nice to, for example, get bCNC working with it. Anyone tried this? It seems to only support GRBL and Smoothieboard.

    How hard would it be to create some kind of a translator to change GRBL output to G2 commands? It could even run it on another arduino or something similiar? I guess I need to start reading the code to understand how G2 actually works.

    Due/G2 is a superset of tinyG, so any CAM that supports tinyG would support G2.
    Their are proprietary Machine centric CAMs that interface G2, probably not what you are looking for.
    I have never played with GRBL, have always thought of GRBL as a Machine layer, like tinyG, speaking Gcode plus a few machine specific commands.

    The G2 wiki should help,
