[05:15:27] <tfmacz> I need to be able to have comments in the gcode that include brackets as par tof the comment. What do I have to do to get emc to ignore the brackets inside the comment???
[05:15:34] <tfmacz> (this is comment(1))
[05:15:45] <tfmacz> (this is comment(2))
[05:16:41] <tfmacz> I tcomplains about nested comments...
[05:16:58] <jmkasunich> I think that is a limitation of the language
[05:18:41] <tfmacz> I am using VCarve and playing with the postp file trying to get a comment header that tells me about the tools needed for the file, someof the tool names are like 'v-bit (60deg)'
[05:20:00] <tfmacz> darn...
[05:20:06] <tfmacz> Thanks...
[05:20:45] <jmkasunich> I wonder if you could do some sed-fu and change the nested () to <> or something?
[13:21:05] <jepler> tfmacz: you have to use a different character besides ")".
