I'm running a home built printer off Mach3 and a G540. My issues are that it takes a long time to upload the program into Mach3. And I'm getting blobing everytime the program hit a G92 A0.

I modified dimension.py per this post that removes the resetting of the A axis. It works great. No pausing.

I was going to say, is it incremental A moves or absolute?

Absolute. Its actually a useful feature in that you can tell how much filimen has been used. I've run prints between 1 and 2 meters of filiment and the A axis keeps up with these large numbers without issues. I've read that Mach 3 views G92 as obsolete, yet Skeinforge still uses it.
