Feed moves will either be blue (G1 moves) or violet (G2/G3)  and Rapid moves are Red.


Not sure what your actual question is.

makcnc,
I would suggest that you a have a read of the Mach manuals and watch the videos to become more
familar with how Mach works. Also there are many sources of  info on gcode.
To write a plug in or macro requires a good understanding of the above and knowledge of what you 
want to accomplish.

What he is trying to do is have MAch3 turn ON the spindle when the Gcode program code changes from G00 to G1.

Mach 3 cannot do it that way. It was never designed to do it in that manner.

What you need is torchmate software. IT does it that way.
