    Ok I am probably missing something very simple and will feel like an idiot
    once I get that answer but here goes. G-post, I have created a post
    processor for my Wire EDM, which is set at 5 decimal places (.00001) how can
    I get G-post to output to that resolution, right now i only get 4 places
    which sometimes gives me errors when it outputs circular interpolation.

    Ken, two config.pro 'options' might help: mfg_xyz_num_digits and
    mfg_ijk_num_digits. These effect ouput to CL file. The default for
    mfg_xyz_num_digits is set to 10, so that probably isn't the problem, unless
    someone changed it. But, check them out, anyway.
