Thank you Andy for committing the docs changes.
Rainer - Perhaps one rainy cold Fall day I will start combing through them
to see if there is anything I can do to make it more clear. If nothing
else, I personally think it would be good to explicitly define the letters
for each G-Code.
Yeah but even on a siemens, it's simply referred to as cycle84 and inside
the cycle gui, you have options of floating and rigid tapping. I think the
rigid part should just be an m function and the tapping function should
just reside inside of the same g84.
Just my $0.02

Hi Phil,
I'd like to see rigid tapping being able to be toggled with an m code or a
parameter I'm the cycle instead of calling g33.1. fanuc mills use m29

I did think of adding the R- and L- explanations to G81 too. But I am
trying to refrain from going too far down the docs editing rabbit hole.
IMHO it should be done.

Ok no worries, I will submit the pull request. I wasn’t sure which was
easier so I erred on this side.
Thanks Andy!

Is it possible to submit it as a pull request at:
https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/pulls
(If not, we can still look at it, but it's harder)

Check out my LinuxCNC tutorials,

Attached is my proposed changes to G74 and G84 in the docs.
Please let me know if you think anything about it should be changed.

Rainer,
Thank you for looking into it, very much appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi Greg,
Although, I do wonder if no X or Y are given, should L still be valid?
totally agree.
I retrofitted some machines with Sinumerik 810 controls.
Tapping and rigid tapping are done with the same G code on this controls
but ask for different parameters.
In combination with a very
Good morning Rainer,
Thanks for the explanation, that makes sense.
Although, I do wonder if no X or Y are given, should L still be valid?
I will take a look at the docs later and see what I can do and submit a PR
to make it a bit more clear (at least for G74 and G84) for future “me’s”
:)

Hi Greg,
the L in a tapping cycle is not intended to tap the same location.
In incremental mode and with a X or Y axis given, it taps at different
locations.
Handy when you do manual programming, confusing when you are used to use
CAM tools.
It is explained in the G81 cycle.
The
Good evening,
I spent some time today in the G-Code docs looking at G74 and G84 (left and
right hand tapping with a tension-compression head in mind) in an attempt
to fully understand the options.
I found the docs for these G-Codes to be a bit vague, and confusing.
Especially given that R- and
