Ahh, to make it work that way with AXIS, I just have to remove the "named pipe" jiggery-pokery, and output to stdout. OK, it'll take a minute to chop that code out. As it stands, emc has to read from the named pipe, not knowing that it is anything but a gcode file, and the preprocessing occurs before emc is involved. But automatic invocation by AXIS, steered by file extension, is very nifty. (Nothing to start manually.)
