I did a quick "search"

 

I think it has all kind of info that you really want to know of which helps you to achieve your needs.

That is something I would use canned text to accomplish

 

I would use the pcan2 and set that up in there

 

I tagged this into my pcan2 section, then you can adjust the plocation of pcan2

 

pcant_out	 #Canned text - build the string for output
 #Assign string select type outputs
 if cant_pos < three, #cant_pos indicates canned text output
 [
 if cantext$ = three, bld = one
 if cantext$ = four, bld = zero
 #Build the cantext string
 if cantext$ = one, strcantext = strcantext + sm00
 if cantext$ = two, strcantext = strcantext + sm01
 if cantext$ > four,
	 [
	 #strtextno = no2str(cantext$)
	 #strcantext = strcantext + strm + strtextno
	 if cantext$ = 5,
		 [
		 pbld, n$, "()", e$
		 pbld, n$, "G91", "G28", "Y0.", e$
		 pbld, n$, "G00", "G90", pwcs, "X0.", e$
		 pbld, n$, "(SET X TO DESIRED LOCATION)", e$
		 pbld, "M00", e$
		 pbld, n$, "(RELEASE AND RETIGHTEN)", e$
		 pbld, n$, "()", e$
		 ]
	 if cantext$ = 6,
		 [
		 pbld, n$, "()", e$
		 pbld, n$, "G91", "G28", "Y0.", e$
		 pbld, n$, "G00", "G90", pwcs, "X0.", e$
		 pbld, n$, "(SET X TO DESIRED LOCATION)", e$
		 pbld, "M00", e$
		 pbld, n$, "(ADD/REMOVE SCREWS/CLAMPS)", e$
		 pbld, n$, "()", e$
		 ]
	 ]
 ]
 else, #cant_pos indicates coolant output

 

Then at the bottom of the post I edit this in;;;

 

[canned text]
1. "Stop"
2. "Ostop"
3. "Bld on"
4. "bLd off"
5. "VISE RELEASE"
6. "SCREWS/CLAMPS"
7. "M7"
8. "M8"
9. "M9"
10. "M10"
