##  Writes g-code to a file.
#
#   While this poses as a mesh writer, what this really does is take the g-code
#   in the entire scene and write it to an output device. Since the g-code of a
#   single mesh isn't separable from the rest what with rafts and travel moves
#   and all, it doesn't make sense to write just a single mesh.
#
#   So this plug-in takes the g-code that is stored in the root of the scene
#   node tree, adds a bit of extra information about the profiles and writes
#   that to the output device.
