the issue i've been running into is that when i set the feed rate to
something nonzero, the printer seems to wait forever saying it is
busy. i seem to need experience sending successful g-code.

i've learned enough about g-code now that i can probably read a
premade file, so it would make sense to find one of those files and
bum it down, like bisecting code when there isn't a debugger, to
figure out how to correctly use the extruder without freezing the
printer up.

i was hoping to be able to interrupt the printer if it is in a frozen
state, but so far i haven't figured out how to do this in this
particular state yet (it looks like disconnecting the usb device would
add some options, as well as learning more gcode).

attached are the files i have, which don't quite function but show my
attempt to prototype something that could parameterize stuff. i
copypasted some documentation into _parser.py which contains code to
parse my copypasting into structures. meanwhile test.py uses these
structures to send code to the printer.
-------

another thing i've discovered is that i'm actually using a very old
version of mecode that happened to have a fork recently updated. the
mainline gcode had two major version updates prior to the fork i've
been engaging. this gives me a desire to merge the two together which
is unfortunately inefficient. it would be more efficient to try to run
the newer code, porting my fixes over if they become needed (this
could take me some time from my spasms, which i've recently been
finding a couple possible avenues that could help reduce). i might
also want to look for forks that are based off the newer tip, to see
what the actual latest codebase is.
