Problem description

Grbl 1.1 - which seems the most common version - does not support canned drilling cycles. However, by default, that is what the post-processor will output.

One can add --translate_drill which alters the output back to G0/G1, but it seems undesirable that by default, it produces code that will not run. Especially as it is not at all obvious without fortuitously finding the information that this is what you need to do.

As there is already an option to turn canned drilling on, being --notranslate_drill, all that would have to be done is to alter the initial default in the code.
