So I could in postgui.hal:

net led4 motion.digital.out-00 pyvcp.camstatus (the leds control pin)

And in my code use m64 p0 to turn it green,
and m65 p0 to turn it red again?

I can't test it ATM, as I turned off the main motor power box before 
coming in for the night, so I can't home it which it needs before that 
works.  But if it works, and I suspect it will, I can use up those 4 
lines quickly as I've at least 3 more leds to control after this one.

Thank you Andy.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
