Hello. I'm working on adding plasma cutter support to dxf2gcode. The postprocessor will specifically target LinxuCNC's PlasmaC controller. I would like to contribute this work back, so I have an architectural question/request for you.

Gcode generation is spread between Write_Gcode methods on various geo objects, while the underlying Gcode writing API is on the MyPostProcessor object. Can I extract this logic from dxf2gcode.core and dxf2gcode.postpro into a dxf2gcode.gcode package? The structure would stay basically the same, but all the Gcode generation logic would be in one package.

Hi, i see no problem in restructuring the code. As long as it works at the end i am happy with it :-)
