Hello all, and Happy Easter :)

I was happy using alias command to make Furaday cape for BeagleBone HAL files much cleaner / easier to use, like this:
fur.di-0
fur.do-2
fur.ai-3
fur.ao-1
fur.ao-1.enable
fur.ao-1.scale
...

Until newer machinekit version came up, which surprisingly says: Unknown command 'alias'.

Those aliased pin names correspond to on-board markings. This way integrator can concentrate on wiring to the board and HAL files instead of looking at numerous datasheets for BB pin numbers, etc.

You can take a look at provided Furaday cape config helper / template files at the bottom of the product page: http://www.robotise.lt/hardware-for-beaglebone/8-furaday-cape-1-2.html


What would you recommend to get back some happiness: to convince machinekit community to get alias command back to life or to use some other command or workaround?
