    Syntax question

    I am trying to clean up a Mastercam post and am having trouble decyphering some lines. For example:

    p_end # End of file
    " ", n, "G53 G0 Z0.", e
    " ", n, "G53 G0 X0. Y0.", e

    What is the function of the 'e' at the end of the second and third lines?

    Tnx;
    Doug

    the "e" is a forced carriage return.
