 /**
  * G2: Clockwise Arc
  * G3: Counterclockwise Arc
+ *
+ * This command has two forms: IJ-form and R-form.
+ *
+ *  - I specifies an X offset. J specifies a Y offset.
+ *    At least one of the IJ parameters is required.
+ *    X and Y can be omitted to do a complete circle.
+ *    The given XY is not error-checked. The arc ends
+ *     based on the angle of the destination.
+ *    Mixing I or J with R will throw an error.
+ *
+ *  - R specifies the radius. X or Y is required.
+ *    Omitting both X and Y will throw an error.
+ *    X or Y must differ from the current XY.
+ *    Mixing R with I or J will throw an error.
+ *
+ *  Examples:
+ *
+ *    G2 I10           ; CW circle centered at X+10
+ *    G3 X20 Y12 R14   ; CCW circle with r=14 ending at X20 Y12
