Rename the subroutine inside that file.
Call it by the subroutine name.
I did that, it worked but now complains about a syntax error in that
file. But without reporting a line number or anything that might lead to
locating it. And I have another problem, tholefinder was written in inch
days, last used for inch measurements. To make it smarter I need to have
it check the machines units with units.comp, which I finally found a
copy of but halcompile flat refuses to do anything with it. Every combo
the manpage shows exits with:
gene@GO704:~/linuxcnc/configs/go704-xyza$ halcompile --install units.comp
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/halcompile", line 1558, in

File "/usr/bin/halcompile", line 1528, in main
process(f, mode, outfile)
File "/usr/bin/halcompile", line 1366, in process
a, b = parse(filename)
File "/usr/bin/halcompile", line 441, in parse
a, b = f.split("\n;;\n", 1)
ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)
units.comp file attached
Is the man page for halcompile duff? This is master, apt updated early
this morning. On buster of course.

Re: [Emc-developers] Emc-developers Digest, Vol 215, Issue 3
Andy, I think you are telling Gene that the subroutine should be named o but the file should still be “tholefinder.ngc”. Is that correct?
