I think it's brilliant Goto (standard loop to startpoint with error) Gotof (forward) Gotob (backward) Gotoc (continue looping without error)
It's not so much the fact that they have four goto, it's the fact that they have that many ways to do it... If that makes sense. Their manuals literally have 12 pages of how to program G2/G3 because there are so many ways to do it. That was kinda my point 😆 Phil T.
