The major issue I think would be that EMC has programming/macro ability in its version of G-Code. For simple g-code it would be moderately simple IF EMC read the entire program and interpreted it prior to execution, but it only makes a cursory pass looking for syntax issues mainly and not doing a c

It is actually very difficult to compute the time remaining as you have to calculate the acceleration and deceleration of each move of the whole file. There is a lot more to calculate than distance traveled and the speeds. I have not seen any that can calculate properly the time for a file to r

Greetings, Not sure if this is the right place for feature requests, but I was thinking a timer with an estimated time remaining would be a very useful tool. It seems like it would be a really powerful addition and somewhat trivial to implement. I would take a stab at it if I were more f
