Hi !
I think that's be nice to optimize the path...
The cutting process would be more speedy when have many zone to cut...
I've found that jeff Eppler one guys that have programming Axis gui of emc
have done some time ago a generator of photo in "dot" of gcode.. for drilling it with emc...
Nice effects...

But the problems his the time to take for drilling all of the dot...was very very too long..
To win many time in machinning process he have prog an gcode optimizer
that works great... "i found..but perhaps it can be more efficients.."
The interest his that it is prog in python and perhaps this one can be easy to add to gcodetools
which one is in python and be able to output optimize gcode path ...
