John, That doesn't sound like the correct location of touchy files for an EMC2 installation.
There are at least two different ways to "install EMC2". You can install it as a regularly installed program similar to how other programs are installed, or you can install them as a run-in-place application which means that they run within a specified directory. (Someone jump in here if I am wrong about something.. ) In order to get the development "master" version of EMC2 which is the 2.5_pre version ( as of a couple of days ago at least ... ), you need to use Git to download the EMC2 source code and install the software, preferably as a run in place installation which will keep everything in one specified directory. http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/emcinfo.pl?Installing_EMC2#Getting_the_source_with_git Line 2.2 The Wiki has good instructions on how to do this. After you install Git, you run the Git Clone command to pull the Git repository off the EMC2 server and put an cloned copy of it on your hard drive in the specified user directory.. emc2-dev per the instructions.. Note that after you do the Git Clone, the master version 2.5_pre is already exposed in your emc2-dev directory. No need to change branches etc. Compile it according to the instructions. Make sure to set the environment also.. Note that this is the current development master and it can have bugs in it.. more so typically than the released versions like 2.3.5. But 2.3.5 does not have Touchy in it.
