This is regarding Cubiio, the 800mW laser engraver I got off Kickstarter
I made a slightly better Cubiio template and a slightly better version of the "J Tech Photonics Laser Tool" plugin.

Changes (Jan 26, 2018):
- Renamed menu item to "J Tech Photonics Laser Tool (Cubiio)" for easy identification, works even if original plugin is still installed
- All settings defaulted to the ones in Cubiio's instructions
- Speed and power settings limited to Cubiio's maximum limits
- Output directory set to "C:\CUBIIO" as default, makes it easier to save to SD card
- Output file name extension changed to ".txt" by default
- Warning dialog if file name is too long or missing ".txt"
- Error dialog if unrecognized objects are found in the file (such as ellipses, text, rectangles)
- Error dialog if Gcode goes out of the 100mm x 100mm area (this will cause Cubiio to crash if it ran the code)
- Got rid of the "Gcodetools orientation point", so you don't have to worry about moving/deleting it accidentally
- Inkscape opens without forcing the window to be very small
- Gcode preview lines are thinner, the arrows are smaller
