Maybe G43.2 could be tweaked to take either a H number or axis codes.
That would be very nice indeed!
Take a look at the andypugh/G43.2-direct branch and see if that does
what you expect.
Looking through the code, it is clear that G43 / G43.1 and G43.2 all
completely ignore tool diameter. This means that G43.2 is not actually
useful for wear offsets on a milling machine (as far as I can tell)
but is useful for a lathe.
(Which is probably the intended use)
Thats exactly what it was, a hack for lathe wear offsets.I think we
should try harder to get out of the work around idea and do things
properly. Which this extra offsets process (IIRC) there no system way of
keeping track of the extra offsets. It would be so much better to have
wear offsets as another set of real offsets rather then the way we did it.
