# xgcode `xgcode` is a proprietary file format used by FlashForge 3D printers. It wraps a plain g-code text file with a binary header containing some information about the build (time, filament consumption, temperature settings...) and a bitmap thumbnail. This extra information is used by the printer's integrated interface. This library is for parsing and generating xgcode header, and accessing the embedded BMP thumbnail and gcode payload.
