Thanks, I had missed probe2stl.py

I looked at it and the only thing I understood is that it knows, how
to look in INI file and to find min and max values of X and Y.

In readme file it says:

  15 In G code:
  16 (PROBEOPEN probe.txt)
  17 G38.2 X...
  18 ...
  19 (PROBECLOSE)

Is there any more detailed explanation, how does it work?
I somehow think that texts in parenthesis is treated as a comment. Or
am I wrong on this one and somewhere has been created a command
"probeopen" and "probeclose"?
