So IMO, the hyphen s/b a legal pin description.
It IS a legal definition, and it WORKS! BUT, it is
inconsistent. The same function on the PPMC DIO board has a
dot separating the output from the invert, but for the USC
and UPC, it has a hyphen.
Describing all that in the docs would be messy, right now it
is all described in one paragraph.
To fix the docs, I'd have to have a different paragraph for
the different systems.
The hal_ppmc.c driver supports 3 different devices. There
is a stepper controller, a PWM controller and the original
PPMC which was for analog servos. But, the PPMC has a
digital I/O board that works similarly to the other 2
boards' digital I/O functions.
Since it is so RARELY used, I think it makes sense to fix
the code in 2.8, ONLY, and maybe fix the docs in 2.7
Thanks for the suggestions,
Jon
