55 49
 Slic3r can find curves that, although broken into segments, were ment to describe an arc.
56 50
 Marlin is able to print those arcs. The advantage is the firmware can choose the resolution,
57 51
 and can perform the arc with nearly constant velocity, resulting in a nice finish.
58 52
 Also, less serial communication is needed.

 If your gcode contains a wide spread of extruder velocities, or you realtime change the building speed, the temperature should be changed accordingly.

 If the target temperature is set manually or by gcode to a value less then tempmin, it will be kept without change.

 Ideally, your gcode can be completely free of temperature controls, apart from a M109 S T F in the start.gcode, and a M109 S0 in the end.gcode.

 If you know your PID values, the acceleration and max-velocities of your unique machine, you can set them, and finally store them in the EEPROM.

 After each reboot, it will magically load them from EEPROM, independent what your Configuration.h says.

 If your hardware supports it, you can build yourself a LCD-CardReader+Click+encoder combination. It will enable you to realtime tune temperatures,
89 79
 accelerations, velocities, flow rates, select and print files from the SD card, preheat, disable the steppers, and do other fancy stuff.

 If you have an SD card reader attached to your controller, also folders work now. Listing the files in pronterface will show "/path/subpath/file.g".
97 86
 You can write to file in a subfolder by specifying a similar text using small letters in the path.

 Also, backup copies of various operating systems are hidden, as well as files not ending with ".g".

 If you place a file auto[0-9].g into the root of the sd card, it will be automatically executed if you boot the printer. The same file will be executed by selecting "Autostart" from the menu.
104 92
 First *0 will be performed, than *1 and so on. That way, you can heat up or even print automatically without user interaction.

+### Endstop trigger reporting
108 95
 
109 96
 If an endstop is hit while moving towards the endstop, the location at which the firmware thinks that the endstop was triggered is outputed on the serial port.
110 97
 This is useful, because the user gets a warning message.
111 98
 However, also tools like QTMarlin can use this for finding acceptable combinations of velocity+acceleration.

 An interrupt is used to manage ADC conversions, and enforce checking for critical temperatures.

 This leads to less blocking in the heater management routine.
