Etch-a-Sketch DrawBot software setup

I'll start by saying I'm very new to processing, so please feel free to point out even the most obvious of error in my logic ;)

I've been working on a DrawBot based on an etch-a-sketch (mostly to amuse the little fella) and looking for suitable software for image to gcode conversion. I came across the amazing death to sharpies project which I believe uses Drawbot_image_to_gcode_v2 which I think (?) is based on processing for its image conversion.

Question: I'm looking for some guidance on how best to installed / compiled / executed Scott-Cooper's code - Drawbot_image_to_gcode_v2. It also seems to have several dependancies or libraries any guidance on tracking these down would be appreciated. I guess I'm looking for Processing 101 / Drawbot 101
