    Question Post Processor: Changing the format of feed output.

    Hi, I am currently putting together a post processor for a Mill master controller software operating a micro kinetics controller.

    My feed rates should all be multiplied by 10 and not have any decimals or trailing zeroes after a decimal.
    For example 59.6 IPM should look like
    F596

    and 9.5 IPM should output
    F95

    and 9 IPM should output
    F90

    In meshcam my correct line looks like this:
    FORMAT = [F|#| F|1.0|10]

    I have no idea how to do the equivalent in CamBam

    Currently 9.5 IPM outputs F9.5 How do I multiply these values by 10 and suppress the decimal and that single trailing zero?
