I am becoming really keen on Capto. It's like the best of all worlds. And it's super-short too. I discovered this weekend that the equation in the standards doesn't give even spacing around the circle. It's epicycles in Xi, 2Xi and 4Xi, so that's no surprise. Today I have been tabulating lookup tables at evenly spaced centre angles (successive approximation in Xi to get a target theta) and I have a HAL component ready to run. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
