Make sure to ALWAYS run a diff check and manually approve any changes this script makes before executing, and ensure the machine operation is carefully watched. This script could potentially create buggy or incorrect G-Code that may run unexpectedly on your machine. Use extreme caution!

All you need is a python version that has been built with tkinter.
If you're on mac and installed python with brew or pyenv, you will likely need to uninstall, then brew install tcl-tk, then reinstall python so it gets built with tkinter. You'll know whether or not tkinter is working when you try to run the script - it'll come up with an error if it's not.
- Execute the python script
- Choose your file(s) to speed up
- The output file(s) are in the same location, with the prefix
-gfast - Use your own tools to run a diff check, simulate the gcode or other systems to check it does what you expect it to do.
- You're good to go! Run the gcode and carefully watch the machine!
