I see, i misread your original email. I think unfortunately the S-word is not available in HAL currently, just in the "active g-codes" where you found it. It would probably be easy to add a motion pin with that information, i'd be happy to guide you through that if you like. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
