    Boss 5 doesn't like K words

    My Boss 5 doesn't like it when K is entered with a G2/G3 (in multi-quadrant mode). Is their a way I can edit the post processor and omit K's?

    Yes, there is a setting you can make in the "conversion" window in the nc setup. I remember discussing this on their forums years ago. You should register over there and do a forum search on the topic.
    What it boils down to, is you can kill off all K words by putting this expression in the "original" window:
    K-*[0-9]*.[0-9]*
    and leave the corresponding line in the "convert to" window blank.
    First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.
