Unpause is a script to speed up a line segment to compensate for the delay of the microprocessor.
The default 'Activate Unpause' checkbox is on. When it is on, the functions described below will work, when it is off, the functions will not be called.
The unpause script is based on the Shane Hathaway's patch to speed up a line segment to compensate for the delay of the microprocessor. The description is at:
http://shane.willowrise.com/archives/delay-compensation-in-firmware/
The "Delay (milliseconds)" preference is the delay on the microprocessor that will be at least partially compensated for. The default is 28 milliseconds, which Shane found for the Arduino. The "Maximum Speed" ratio is the maximum amount that the feed rate will be sped up to, compared to the original feed rate, the default is 1.5.
The equation to set the feed rate is from Shane Hathaway's description at:

The following examples unpause the file Screw Holder Bottom.stl. The examples are run in a terminal in the folder which contains Screw Holder Bottom.stl and unpause.py.
> python unpause.py
This brings up the unpause dialog.
> python unpause.py Screw Holder Bottom.stl
The unpause tool is parsing the file:
Screw Holder Bottom.stl
..
The unpause tool has created the file:
.. Screw Holder Bottom_unpause.gcode
