I'll sneak up on a better understanding of the internals. For now, just the doco page on predefined parameters has already allowed me to synchronise my efforts better with the LinuxCNC state of the art. (i.e refrain from introducing parallel named variables, in duplication of the new predefined parameters.) I'll tweak the Subroutine translation once return values come on stream.

Oh no, there's configs/sim/remap/manual-toolchange-with-tool-length-switch/ to explore. That's the rest of this evening gone. Many thanks for the links, most especially the new Gcode Overview. It'll all help to keep me on the right track. Erik -- ... with proper design, the features come cheaply.
