 The flag being zero (not set)  when we start the post processor the condition will be met the first time and since we use the &character the flag will be set which will entail that the condition will not be met the next time. It now remains to insert the condition in the desired position in the macro for the change of tools. The flag being zero (not set)  when we start the post processor the condition will be met the first time and since we use the &character the flag will be set which will entail that the condition will not be met the next time.

 We can also indicate what we want to happen if the condition is not met (OR ELSE). If we want to change the macro for the change of tools so that M66 is output at the first change of tools and M67 (notice that this example is not necessarily logical but only used to explain the functions of the language) is output at all subsequent changes of tools we must add a pair of brackets to be executed if the condition is not met. This is done like this: We can also indicate what we want to happen if the condition is not met (OR ELSE).

 After all types of conditions we can print an alternative pair of brackets separately with a comma sign to be executed if the first pair of brackets was not executed.

 Instead of the name of a parameter we can write a calculation, a variable or an integer between the < and > signs. These will be created in the same way as a parameter of the post processor.
