Change tool comment confuses some machines and simulators

[zio-pietro]

Gcode postprocessors prepend comment to change tool command in form
(tool change to <tool name> (<tool type>) )
see nested parenthesis!
But according to infos found in net (for ex. cnczone.com)

Printable characters and white space inside parentheses is a comment. A left parenthesis always starts a comment. The comment ends at the first right parenthesis found thereafter.
Once a left parenthesis is placed on a line, a matching right parenthesis must appear before the end of the line. [multiline comments of type 'just a pair of brackets for all lines' aren't allowed]
Comments may not be nested; it is an error if a left parenthesis is found after the start of a comment and before the end of the comment.

(note and emphasis mine)

Not tried on my CNC mill yet, but simulator CAMotics refuse load that Gcode with errormsg

ERROR: Invalid character: ')'
ERROR: At: <gcode filename> <line>:<location of second right parenthesis>

Consistent with the cnczone comment, CAMotics parser closes comment at first occurrence of right parenthesis and a second one is considered as invalid character.

Q&D workaround: open gcode file with text editor and cancel guilty parenthesis ;)
Doing so every time is boring, so I suggest change comment form to

(tool change to <tool name> - <tool type>)

Just my 5 cents.

Oh, wrong place, it's heekscnc issue, sorry for it. :(
Can it be moved there or I must repost it?

Can it be moved there or I must repost it?

I think that the owner of the repos can move an issue from one to another: Transferring an issue to another repository

Good luck!
