This is a snip for rs274ngc.cc, is M98 and M99 really defined ? There's a -1 at
position 98 and 99 and in addition to that I can't find M98 and M99 in the
rs274ngc documentation.

Modal groups and modal group numbers for M codes are described in [NCMS,
page 7]. We have added M60 as an extension of the language
so the language can be used to control the K&T 800 machine.

The groups are:
group 4 = {m0,m1,m2,m30,m60} - stopping
group 6 = {m6}               - tool change
group 7 = {m3,m4,m5}         - spindle turning
group 8 = {m7,m8,m9}         - coolant
group 9 = {m48,m49}          - feed and speed override switch bypass
