I never realised this was something EMC had trouble with.  guess there'll be
alot of stuff I'll find out after i get a machine actually running with it.

At work, we number each section of the program that has each tool, N1 for
t1, N2, etc...  then if we have a tool break or whatever we go to that N and
start from there. then it goes over the G43, 54, M03, etc for that tool.
