Please note that gcmc defaults to mm if no units are specified. The above will move 0.5mm each step. For inches, you should explicitly specify it in the code: for( x = 0mil; x <= 10000mil; x += 500mil ) { for ( y = 0mil; y <= 4000mil; y += 500mil ) { drill( [x, y, -500mil], 100mil, 100mil); } } I am considering to implement "in"-suffix for inches, but there are some annoying side-effects when doing so because there will be more than one conversion possibility. Should "1in + 1" be 2in or 1001mil. The former would be more logical, but has the problem that you no longer can assume a variable's magnitude. The latter has consistent magnitude, but is a bit harder to understand/grasp/use.
