MASSO supports sub-program calls using M98 and M99.

Up to 5 levels of sub-program nesting are supported.
Sub-programs allow commonly used toolpaths to be reused without rewriting the same code multiple times.

When a sub-program is called, MASSO looks for a separate .nc file and runs it as a sub-program.
Using separate files allows common program sections to be shared between different jobs.
