G-code files are easy to read and interpret, but their downside is that the +data is not saved efficiently, and the file size is often very large. Compression of +the file is problematic because the printers usually run on limited hardware and they +may not have enough memory and/or CPU power to decompress it. + +Block and Binary G-Code is a new G-code file format featuring the following +improvements over the legacy G-code: +@itemize +@item Block structure with distinct blocks for metadata vs. G-code. +@item Faster navigation. +@item Coding and compression for smaller file size. +@item Checksum for data validity. +@item Extensibility through new (custom) blocks. For example, a file signature block +may be welcome by corporate customers. +@end itemize + +The binary G-code format is flexible and the encoding and compression of individual +blocks is variable. @code{libbgcode} library contains the routines to convert ASCII +G-codes to binary and vice versa.") + ;; See + ;; <https://github.com/prusa3d/libbgcode/blob/main/pyproject.toml> + (license license:agpl3+)))) + (define-public prusa-slicer (package (name "prusa-slicer") |
