Would it be possible to add commands like these // or behaviour  as a
plugin? I mean, it would be read and processed on EMC startup only, so
it would not be hardcoded.

some 2.5 years ago I planned an interpreter of G-codes, so thta it
would speak in BASIC-like, English-like language. With programmable
interface (loaded at start from say... "extension.emc file") you would
be able to map natural language words to G-code meanings and vice
versa... so you would be able to:
1) program in g-codes and see the meanning in the other column, or
2) program in natural language, BASIC-like "RUN TO X=115" and see the
G-code results in other column. This way would EMC become universal
multilanguage interpreter.

I see the wiki page to be read-only for me, so post I can not post it there.
