In my limited, uneducated, G-code experience I've found it to be very helpful to write out what i want the machine to do in English and then write the corresponding G-code on the left of it. Is there a notation that allows this to be done such as "", //, <>, etc as in other programming languages? I can't seem to find anything on google about it but maybe i just haven't been using the correct terminology. Thanks for the help

Use bracket or parenthesis for comment ( )
for eg.
G1(linear interpolation) X25.Z-20.
cheers

if ( ) dosn't work for your machine,as it dosn't for an 18 year old comet vmc we have,just write it out and use a block delete for that line
