ArtCAM 2010 Post Processor Configuration Guide

http://www.cadfamily.com/a/CAM_CNC_DNC/ArtCAM/ArtCAM-2010-Post-Processor-Configuration-Guide_5151.html

Because of the wide range of controls on the market, it is not possible for
Delcam to write a specific post processor for every control. However the
vast majority of controls have fairly simple formatting requirements, and
therefore Delcam supply a configurable post processor which can be used
by customers or agents to create a post processor to support their control.
This configurable post processor uses an ASCII configuration file to
specify the output format required.
This approach has a number of advantages.
§ New machines tools can be supported quickly by writing a new
configuration file or modifying an existing one.
§ Existing configuration files can be modified if they do not conform
to a users existing working practice (e.g. using inches for output
instead of mm).
