I'm trying to figure out where I can edit my post processor to add a debug feature for linuxcnc. I'd like a pop up window in Axis that tells me what operation the machine is on.

In the gcode for linuxcnc if I can have a comment that looks like (debug,name of current operation) it shoiuld work.
What i haven't found is where in the post editor I can change a variable that comments the operations.
Thanks

Hi Hahn,
You can insert comment to a machining operation by selecting the operation, right mouse button click and select Properties.
Under comments to output you can enter your comment as debug,name of current operation
If you have output comments turned on in your post processor, the comment you entered would appear at the start of the operation.

The other hack I found was renaming the operations to debug, name_of_op
But this has the same problem of requiring manual editing. I was hoping for a way to globally edit.
