Post Code and Modifying Headers

[Kampfzentrum]

Greetings dudes! So I've been programming for a number of years now (15 year journeyman beforehand) and I am curious enough to now step into the world of post code (i.e. the code inside of the .pst file). I'm doing something as simple as modifying the program headers but have figured out that it would be best to start learning about this code before cracking it manually. So, before I start randomly popping off questions, let's start simple:

What is the name of this code?

Is there a key that defines what these codewords do (e.g. "spathnc", "smcname", etc.)

Is there any instructional media that could help me grab up on this quicker?

Let's start here. Much thanks for your time.

Click the link at the bottom of my signature. This will take you to a recorded version of my MP 101 class for Post Processor development.

Go to 'Playlists' and watch the 28 videos for MP 101. That will get you through "Basic Mill Post Processing". The MP 301 is a class on modifying the Generic Fanuc 5X Mill Post (for 5-Axis setup).
