my advise, you must know your G-code file extension that can be feed
to your cnc software(my software use .ngc)..after that you can find
the specific one on the internet..as i know, the excellon drill file
has .drl file extension..you can rename as .txt or .nc file extension,
after that you can convert .txt or .nc file to G code with .ngc file
extension
---have a nice day
