Halrun starts a new HAL session, you need to loadrt hostmot2 /
hm2_7i90 / threads every time, then addf the functions to the thread
and start the thread.

You can put all the setup in a little halfile if you want, and then use

halrun -I test.hal

to save typing it all in every time. That's a capital "i" and means
"start an interactive HAL session after running the HAL file"

Halmeter won't have any pins to meter if you don't load the 7i90 driver.
