+"drill" and "mill" search for paths that can be processed with the
+specified tool and generate the corresponding toolpaths. After "drill"
+or "mill", only the toolpaths for this tool remain. The paths that
+have been converted are removed and the paths for which the tool is
+unsuitable are moved to a separate list, the remainder list.
+
+"remainder" clears the list of paths and sets the list of paths to
+the remainder list. Note that "clear" does not affect the remainder
+list.
+
+"empty" does nothing if the list of paths is empty and makes cameo
+exit with an error if there are paths in the list. This can be used
+to ensure that all paths in a file have been converted.
+
+Example:
+
+  excellon example.drl
+  drill 7mil 13mil
+  write drill.gp
+  remainder
+  mill 0.8mm 0.01mm
+  write mill.gp
+  remainder
+  empty
+
+In this example, we first load a drill file. Then we generate drill
+commands for all simple holes with a diameter between 7 mil and 13 mil
+and write the toolpaths to the file "drill.gp". Next, we retrieve the
+remaining paths, generate toolpaths for a 0.8 mm endmill, and write
+them to the file "mill.gp". Finally, we check that all paths have been
+processed.
