Fred, I was wondering what had happened to that development as I know it
was mentioned some time ago. I for one, am certainly interested in such
a technique. I could only apply feedrate changes though, as Even with
much prodding, I am still unable to convince a particular Control
developer to find a way to apply or control >acceleration< via the
"code" itself. It could be a difficult thing to write in. I do know that
there are a lot of controls that require many of the "defaults" (feed
and Rapid rates, Accels, Safeheights Etc.) to be placed i the begining
of the file. I'm not sure how many controls allow for Accel adjustments
in the code on the Fly.

It would be a great addition to a Cad/Cam software such as Vector, and I
know of no one else trying to do it, even though it sure seems like a
very doable thing.

Please keep us posted !
