Modifying a plugin would require you to have the source code and I am not sure if Brian has released it or not.
Yopu may have more luck with the copycat wizard, I have not tried it but if it doesnt have access to the A B C DROs then you can likely change the button script in the wizard.

maybe we can suggest at brian, to add abc axis


to add  button

one for write in the code at the last line
one for insert the code between  line


if someone know brian

Brian is the guy that now writes Mach, he is a bit busy normally If enough people wanted it then I would imagine it would go on the list of things to do but I am not sure it would be high on many peoples list of wants.

i understand, but how to help him?

Best thing to do would be send a request to andrew@machsupport.com and see if it gets on the list. It may be it is a very easy thing for Brian to modify or it may be it is a very hard thing, only Brian will know.

the best for this plug in will

start a new file blank

adjust the position for all axis

click on a button for write all position with the good position

exemple

g0x10y5z8a-5b10z300


after continue to adjsut the axis, write the second line with jcode

etc....


and if you need to insert a line before the line *********, you can use an other button


with this plug in, you can program a arm robot, finger in the noze ^^

after test, copycat is fine, easy to use it

but only 3 axis
