It seems to me that the likelihood of fixing all of the methods of gcode generation such that they don't generate short line segments is approximately zero. Also, it seems that even if a proprietary LinuxCNC gcode extension allowed arbitrary plane arcs, splines, etc. that the likelihood of CAM packages being able to make proper use of that is also approximately zero.
Rather than trying to solve this problem in a million places not under our control, doesn't it make sense to try and solve it properly in one place and look more closely at using more than one line for look ahead? Of course I have no idea how hard this problem is, and since it has not yet been solved yet in LinuxCNC I presume it is significantly hard, but I am wondering what specifically makes it hard.
