 I am developing my thesis of electronic engineering. This is a laser cutting machine. This machine will have at its core a mainboard which will have a Linux RTAI. The user interface is done through the CAD software where laser powers can be assigned to design the user wants to cut. I saw that libreCAD is the best option to make an interface to my system. Now I need to add other functionality to libreCAD such as starting and stopping of the machine, the data transfer trajectory generator software, etc..
I need your help to achieve this goal of transforming libreCAD on my machine interface adding  toolbars and new features that I need. Where should I start? In what ways could you help me? I need instructions please. :)

Greetings Diego
