Re: Software Advice Needed
For what sounds quite straight-forward, just some hand coding with a parametric style to adjust dimensions might be easy enough. Mach-x can do this.
Otherwise have a look at:
1. SimplyCam from MR-Soft Nc Software Tools - not free nor expensive but the demo version can produce about 100 lines of code and is otherwise fully functional (except saving drawings)
2. Some of the Linux based CNC software - may be overly complicated for what you want.
Cheers,

Mill Wizard is a fairly primitive rastering CAM program; I don't think it does anything that Freemill won't. If you have very simple projects, you can execute them by typing commands into the MDI (Manual Data Input) panel one line at a time.

For quick facing jobs, I just use the jog keys.

Simple-gcode-generators, no drawing needed.

They should able to run stand-alone in Windows (I haven't tested them in Windows personally)
