While working on an offset display widget, I notice that it is quite possible 
for
linuxcnc to _not_ update the var file after say a MDI command G10 L2 P0 etc.

I notice reloading the Gcode file forces this update.

Is there any way to force linuxcnc directly to update the var file, preferably 
in python?

For instance there is a command load_tool_table() to force a tooltable update.

I am working in master so if it's a matter of adding to the python binding's I 
can do that.
I am just not sure if it's possible.

Ultimately I am hoping I can change the offsets directly from my display 
widget. (all-be-it with some limitations)
But at the moment I want it to at least display accurate status.

Thanks
