dxf2gcode does not recognize LayerControl Element "spindle_speed_identifiers i.e. S, RPM etc"

Py3.9.7 PyQt5.15.7: $Revision: b6983e9e9c3df532b2f621ab4e89dc813b521bd7 $

Attached pls find a dxf file. Layer Control Elements like depth, forward speed are recognized but not spindle speed.
Effect is to manually edit NGC files and add the "Sxxx" parameter for each shape.

Output:

(*** LAYER: MILL: 1 Tg:-1 Tz:-1 F:650 Fz:650 Sh:5 Wn:1 S:500 ***)
        <-------- Missing S value here !!! , should read S500
(* SHAPE Nr: 0 *)

    Found the failure. The values is added by the code defined for Tool Change. You commented it out in your files.

    [Program]
        # This will be done after each layer, if different tools are used.
        tool_change = ""
    

    Should Read:

    [Program]
        # This will be done after each layer, if different tools are used.
        tool_change = T%tool_nr M6%nlS%speed%nl
