Hello Stuart Crystal Flow and Crystal Revs do look good. There's a free trial, could you exercise it? How could it be used by the Linuxcnc Programmers as a group? I'd gladly put a 100$ in the pot if it make a tool that demystified the hairball of emc. Tho, I cant see what would be

Then a db search by subject to minimize the size of the chart (answer). Sometimes I debug an NCL macro by introducing an error(check). Running it against the database and finding the error line. Thanks Stuart On Wed, Apr 28, 2021, 10:28 AM andy pugh wrote: > On Wed, 28 Apr 2021 at 12:33, Matt

I think what Stuart wants is a diagram of the data structures in Linuxcnc that visually represents their scope and that shows what code accesses them. He would probably also like some sort of "call map" that illustrates program execution paths. I have always wanted something like this too! I've
