I don’t know if you have written any macros before or not. I recently made my first.

Permanent Z only probe

I do most of my milling with Z zero set to the spoil board surface and I had an idea of how to make that workflow a little easier for me.

I found this section User Guide · cncjs/cncjs Wiki · GitHub to be very informative. gSender being a descendent of cncjs all info there is relevant.

If you need a gcode reference try LinuxCNC "G-code" Quick Reference you can get a feel what different gcodes do at the start and and click to get the full rundown on the ones you’re interested in.
