    Claudinei,

    ger21 seems to have programmed an awesome g-code macro for Autocad, you'll find it in the downloads section. Also, search the forums for "gcode macro", there's a thread somewhere on this site that discusses ger21's macro.

    Wait 'til you see the next version. Might be a while, though.
