Brilliant,

so where do I find this macro method ?

sounds much better

or I could alter the post to issue a g92.1 at the end of each run?

Just try searching the Mach3 forum and look at the Wiki for it's Commands etc.

Yes you could just have it insert g92.1 and maybe thats how it's done in plasma but me personally I would use the more conventional Macro approach.
To be honest I'm sure I've seen some thing around for Sheet Cam that use's modified M3 spindle Macro to do this very thing you want.? If I was doing it that's how I'd approach it and just have sheet cam insert M3 in the G-code.
