M3 and M4 have the same effect in G-code (as long as S is not 0).

So, in the G-code have
S1
at the beginning and then M3 will turn on the Plasma, and M5 will turn it off.

Any text editor can be used. It is certainly worth trying that way to begin with, to see what the CAM software is doing.

Can you elaborate a bit on how your THC works, they have many different types so it is impossible to tell you how to hook yours up until we know all about it.
