Artisan (ah-ha) controller, I moved this post here, I put it in the Linuxcnc area by accident.

1st question, does anyone have a good programming reference for Artisan, they quit making them 15 years ago (or so) and all I have is the silly manual, that's not gonna help you very much.

2nd, what I'm interested in is M98 calls, and loop calling it.

Cut down version of my code, I guess L20 isn't supported, because it only gets called once. How do you loop up 20 times on the subfunction in Artisan? (yha, get mach3, that's what I keep reading)
