The post processor is configurable by changing the values of constants. No programming experience required. This can make a generated g-code program more readable and since older machines have very limited memory it seems sensible to reduce the number of commands and parameters, like e.g. suppress the units in the header and at every hop.

Some machines seem to have a different scheme for calculating / rounding the values of the center # Thus it is possible that the machine complains, that the endpoint of the arc does not lie on the arc. # Using the radius instead avoids this problem. # The post processor takes care of the fact, that only angles <= 180 degrees can be used with R # for larger angles the center is used independent of the setting of this constant RADIUS_COMMENT = True # possible values: # True for better understanding the radius of an arc is included as a comment # False no additional comment is included # In case the comments are included they are always included with the bracketing syntax like '(R20.456)' # and never with the comment symbol, because the radius might appear in the middle of a line.
