EMC doesn't presently recognize subroutines- but it could be done, if
enough of us put our heads together and work on it. It seems like a
subroutine parser/converter could be substituted for the current G-code
editor that could do the job. EMC recognizes drilling and boring cycles,
but not repeat subroutines (using L words-like on Fadals).

EMC does do cutter comping for diameter and height. It took me awhile do
get the hang of it, but it does work.
