The first way is to write the routine that you want one time with the
coordinate system word or variable calls at the start. Copy the routine
and change to the next coordinate system. Repeat to the end of the
board or plywood. This does make a longer program file.

The second way is to write the routine as a one-time stand alone program
and then write a "master" program to run it wherever you want with
scripts/subroutine. This is a bit tricky at first.

The third way would be to mess with tkemc -- an EMC gui -- that you can
customize for the specific application. It would be possible to make stock
patterns available to run with a single button or an entry screen with a
few variables to enter and a go button. Most flame table programs have
routines like this.

Ray:

But do I have to write the program 10 times in order to keep running it
without re-starting each time I change the origin?
