True, I was just thinking about how we might want to modify the user-defined macro, g-code, etc. to deal with the situation in the most appropriate manner. On the other hand there are lots of specialized situations where you just do something because you need to or it is just to weird not to ;-) I have plans of writing a couple of functional and object-oriented programming examples in Fortran-2008 and compile/run them on an Arduino. It's just to sick of a thing not to do!
