Your exhuberant guess is approximately 1800 pages short. There are almost 1900 pages of LinuxCNC manuals. Since it is still under active development I reprint the lot of them at about 2 year intervals to keep abreast of the newer stuff. > but have you thought of putting a stack of discarded output into the > feed hopper (to conserve paper) and printing jobs that have a single > character on each page (to conserve ink/toner) so you can test the > printers reaction to Cancel while you play with the settings.

It does, network-mangler is totally incapable of dealing with a local /etc/hosts file based network. If it is, then someones updating of the docs is sorely needed because that starting premise is not mentioned. So I do what I have to do. I can't help it if that Just Works(TM) offends your sense of righteousness. To add insult to the no network injury here, Network-Mangler cannot be removed because it has dependencies that would destroy the rest of the system, and I've not found a way to disable it other than fixing the files so it works and chattr +i them as I go. Network-Mangler should complain, but if it does I am not privy to the conversation. I still see it bouncing around in the htop output, but it no longer has the tools to screw me up.
