Description
After making the data cable maker that uses round cables ( http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:910194 ), I got several requests for a similar thing that would use ribbon cable. The defaults for this script work well with old IDE or serial flat ribbon cables, at least the ones I have in my "old wires" box.

Break-away header pins for use in this project:

Limitations:
The "round cable" version I made first had a lot of options and the source is also a nightmare. The source on this is still probably somewhere between "very bad dream" and "nightmare" stage (I'm still learning), but here I simplified things a great deal so that I have some hope in the future of being able to follow along with the script. So here are some missing parts:
- Only prints a single column version. When I do a double column version, I'll do that separately.
- Always prints the wire separators.
- No indicator bump, but the top surface is convenient for writing pin numbers.
- Does not include required adjustments for female headers.
