The ngc standard doesn't have things like flow control and subroutines; EMC2 did start with an ngc implementation long ago, but it has grown a lot of features that were not in ngc. That being said, the best place to start for all questions about EMC2's gcode is the gcode quickref: http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode.html >From here you'll see "O..." under flow control codes, and clicking on the O will send you to the more specific documentation. You'll be looking for sub/endsub but there are more. Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
