I am very sure that Indexer, the tsr portion, always did allow for a
Stop or Tooling Change with a return to last location or even a previous

but, no-one took the time to apply it effectively. You probably were /
are one of the early users of the feature.

Still want to here from some current users with that new G-code
Interface....
