Path header and footer

[serealhansman]

Hi!
I am currently putting together a Plasma Cutter CNC Machine.
The Controller is an Arduino running GRBL, using grblweb in combination with jscut as a Frontend.
For the Plasma Cutter to work, i Need some Special G-Codes at the beginning of each Path (Probing the Surface, starting the Plasma, moving up a bit, waiting some time, moving a Little down) and also at the end (stopping Plasma, moving a Little up, waiting some time).

The easiest way to achieve this - i think - would be to include a headerfile to the GCode-Output before each path, followed by a footerfile after each path...

What Do you think about that? Could this be possible?

I would also need this, I'd like to use it for laser cutting and instead of plunge and retract I need to run gcode to start/stop laser.
I would be nice to have two text fields where one can put gcode which would be used instead of this:

jscut/js/Cam.js

Line 374 in 88652b7

'; Retract\r\n' +

and this:

jscut/js/Cam.js

Line 473 in 88652b7

'; plunge\r\n' +

LaserWeb4 is a better match for laser cutting. It's the successor to jscut.

I have just found it. You should add it to the readme :)
