I would simply write a custom program/script called M101 or whatever, and have that called as the last thing in your program. If you want, you can put an optional stop before that. > So - any comments, ideas, outcries of rage? all very good ideas, but maybe you can make them work with the current codebase Regards, Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
