Bit late this Ulster man but anyway think Tenson use's Mach3 control which doesn't support conditional code like Do/while in the main G-code file so needs to be done thru macro's. And think he was meaning more for the CAD/CAM software to post process it in main G-code file has most folks on here don't get into running macro's and sub routines etc.
