Yeah, I know, you never got to see 8.0 and 9.0, they went away never got
time to release them.
New Features and Bugs fixed:
1) DXF layer is improved, plunge rates added.
2) DXF stutter problem gone. (Multiple lines generated)
3) DXF Spindle speed per layer and empty layer removal.
4) DXF improved optimization
5) Macro's changed to multi-threading design. They now run in parallel to
the engine.
6) New Macro Commands:
IsMoving Returns a 1 if the interpreter is processing movement.
GetPortByte( address ) returns the byte at that port address
PutPortByte( address, byte ) puts the byte into that port.
7) Dwell Bug checked and repaired.
8) OverRide input pin is repaired
9) When in ToolChange, Estop will stop that state
10) G28.1 repaired. It is now repeatable in its operation. G28.1 X1 will
move rapid to 1, then home to switch ,move off switch and stop.
11) Flood Mist setting repaired
12) M30 offset removal bug. Only X was being removed when commanded by
Ancillary logic setting.
I have left RC2 as the most stable version until this is tested,
particularly the macro control. If all goes well, RC2 will be removed after
the next release. I still have some bugs on the list, but wanted to get this
general maintenance release out. (Its been almost a month.)
