8.4.12.1. M22 Code: Output Current Position to File
The M22 code is used to write information to a file while a program is running. Typically, this code is
used when digitizing to write the current X and Z machine coordinates to a file. The proper format for
using this code is:
M22([filename.ext [,A]]) [text and macros]
Items in brackets [ ] are optional, except that a filename is required for the first M22 code used.
