There's not, unfortunately. The interface between the UIs and the control software in LinuxCNC is so poorly documented that the best source of information is to look at the source code of the other GUIs. Take a look at src/emc/usr_intf/shcomm.cc for how to send control messages to Task (which is the part of the controller that GUIs talk to). Status information comes back to the GUIs via shcomm's emcStatusBuffer, though the meaning of the fields is not well documented. :-/ -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting.
