Vcf-compiler: reconstructing the VCutWorks VCF file format

Vcf-compiler reconstructs the binary VCF file format used by Ruida VCutWorks. It compares native files with generated variants, documents header, layer, geometry and trailer fields, and implements a Python writer that converts DXF input or a specification into VCF. The author reports that generated files load in VCutWorks with geometry and cutting parameters displayed.
