Yes, there will be an example of a lineardeltakins configuration in the
next release.  This is long overdue.

I believe the BeBoPr++ uses the same pins as the BeBoPr+ which is the
same as the BeBoPr-Bridge, so hopefully one configuration will work with
all of them, but I don't have details yet.

As for the end positions, some things cannot be changed at runtime via
HAL (apparently some really old stuff that pre-dates HAL and never got
migrated to HAL signals/parameters).  But you may be able to do what you
want using G92 offsets.  You should at least be able to use G92 to do a
bit more testing between re-launches of LinuxCNC.
