How would you decide which config the G-code was for?
If you want to put an M-code in the G-code, and that is what determines
the target machine of the G-code, then maybe a custom M-code is the way, as
you suggest.
Something like M100 for one config, and M101 for the other.
file: M100
#! /usr/bin/env/ python
import linuxcnc
if inifile.find("EMC", "MACHINE") != "LinuxCNC-HAL-SIM-AXIS":
c = linuxcnc.command()
c.error_msg("This G-code is for a different config")
c.abort()
Make the file executable, put it in the nc_files directory, (or in the
SUBROUTINE_PATH) and it will abort running the G-code when it runs M100 if
the MACHINE entry in the active INI is not the specified string.
Probably. I haven't tested it :-)
