Hi Adam,

OH! :)
...and I thought, that the gcode is a write-only format, which cannot be "reversed"
into something a slicer would understand (only the printer)...

You see: It's time, that my printer finally arrived (it got stuck somehwere between
the UK and here) and get out of this "theoreticallu it may be. that"-thinking...

Thanks a lot Adam! Your solution is by far better than hand picking gcode-commands
and deciphering printer settings from that... :))

Cheers
