There might be an elegant way, but you you could: 1) Create constants in the HAL file, and use setp to store data from the INI file in it. http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html/man/man9/constant.9.html eg loadrt constant names=ratio1,ratio2,ratio3 setp ratio1.value [GEAR_RATIOS]ratio1 Then in the shell script halcmd getp ratio1.out should return the value (but I have not tested this) Wait for a better way to do it to be suggested before trying this though. I am not sure why you need the gear ratios, does this HAL component for up to 16 gears help? http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.devel/4043/focus=4235 -- atp "Torque wrenches are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense. http://p.sf.net/sfu/splunk-d2d-c2 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
