Alex, Thanks, that is a huge help. I had come across that actually, but misinterpreted it for what it was. I had dismissed it because I presumed it was mainly for displaying CPU information and things like that. I have just started going through the documentation, where the section on LDCProc clients is really sparse (i.e. virtually non-existent <g>), but as I understand it, I would mainly have to write an LCDProc client, which of course interfaces with EMC.
OTOH, this is a much more significant addition to EMC, certainly far more than my modest immediate objectives. It seems to me an addition of this magnitude should go through the board as far as approval, setting up how to organize it in the overall structure, etc. Like classic ladder, it makes EMC dependent, at least in some small degree, to an external open source development. Hence the success of that portion is based on how well this external development is supported. I will begin looking into it, but I will not add anything to EMC (CVS) without some level of approval. My program, emclcd, at this point is just a place holder, so nothing has been lost at this point. I, of course, would appreciate any advice on how to proceed with this development.
