Hi all,
I am trying to put o-word subroutines in a different folder from nc_files.
In the ini file (I tried testing on sim/axis.ini and sim/tkemc.ini) I have:

So under [RS274NGC] I entered:
SUBROUTINE_PATH = /home/emcuser/emc2/subroutines
And call
Gene, et al,
Is SUBROUTINE_PATH new to 2.5? I just noticed the reference I found was in
the 2.5 version of the Integrator manual, but it does not appear in the 2.4
version. I am currently using 2.4.6 (or is it 2.4.7 reporting that it is
2.4.6). At any rate, I found it through a search, but see
Erik,
Thanks for the tip, but ultimately that has the same problem. For now I will
just change the file attributes to require a sudo to edit or delete

not get accidentally deleted if someone was over zealous in cleaning up

Emcrsh is particularly suited for instances where you want to interface with
