Interesting. Can I ask why you want to see this?

Oh great - it didn't (or I didn't) save my comment......
I would like a command line switch to add a comment to the Arc commands counting the number of linear moves replaced by the arc. I use ArcWeldLib as a stand alone script from SuperSlicer so I can't really have any stats. I think it would be easier to fine tune the paramerters if I knew how well ArcWeldLib is running. OctoPrint strips comments anyway so it doesn't affect the print. I have seen on a 'pure circle' outputs of three separate arcs and have wondered what made the 'break'.

FYI, I've added statistics output to the latest branch. I've got things separated out to:

Total segments converted
Extrusions converted
Retractions converted
Travel moves converted

However, not all of them display as of now. I'll update this issue once all of the output can be included. There is a switch now to enable detailed statistics output.

Thank you for being patient!

Well now, darn near forgot about this...
Actually I was looking for a per line break down kinda like:
G1 X100 Y100
G2 X110 Y110 I0 J-10 ; count 15

That way no extrusions would have no E.
I know ArcWeld works but some times an arc is not made when I think it should be.
Especially on brims.
Over all stats are good but I wanted something more granular.
