    MARLIN MOVE PLANNING
    Marlin does the three dimensional move planning in the planner.cpp file. I don't pretend to know enough about it to say more than I have. There are some comments in the file, but I found them lacking.

    Probably the best summary I found regarding move planning was http://www.extrudable.me/2013/04/02/...th-of-z-speed/. I ran across this in searching for info on what the jerk settings are all about. The article focuses on increasing the speed of the Z axis on an Ultimaker, but the author does provide a couple of paragraphs that summarize what happens in the move planning. I can't attest to the complete accuracy of the description, but it fits the bits I was starting to grasp as I studied the move planning code. When I found that article, I stopped trying to understand the code and focused on how I could demonstrate things on my printer.
