    Hi there ! First of all, thank you to @frmdstryr for creating Inkcut! After this little legitimate flattery, here is my question:

    I create layered SVG files in Inkscape and then send them using Inkcut to a Roland DXY-1150 plotter. I'd like to know if there is a way to send an HPGL instruction for pen change (SP0;, SP1;, SP2; etc.) between each layer?

    For now, I have to send each layer separately to the plotter then manually change the pen in the plotter's tool holder between each layer because I haven't understood or found out how to make Inkcut send this pen change code.
    I have tried naming the layers 1, 2, 3, etc., or using different colors for each layer object, but it doesn't work.

    Thank you for your help!
