Sightly hijacking my own thread, In doing more reading, I found the following text of interest:
(ref: http://www.shapeoko.com/wiki/index.php/Grbl) "It accepts standards-compliant G-code and has been tested with the output of several CAM tools with no problems. Arcs, circles and helical motion are fully supported - but no support for tool offsets, functions or variables as these are apocryphal and fell into disuse after humans left G-code authoring to machines some time in the 80s." Wow - Tool offsets fell into disuse in the '80s? No functions or variables or conversational programming anymore? ;-) John. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
