Computations, loops, conditionals, procedures, etc. are doable in
ini files using haltcl as a substitue for halcmd.
The syntax for haltcl files is very similar to halcmd.
Ini files can include both hal and haltcl files, and they
can be intermixed with care:
[HAL]
HALFILE=core_sim.tcl
HALFILE=otherfile.hal
Ref:
http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/hal/haltcl.html
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.devel/2518/match=haltcl
$ man haltcl
There is an example sim ini file in:
configs/sim/simtcl/twopass_demo.ini
The example uses the axis gui and provides procedures
that implement the setup steps normally done with
core_sim.hal, axis_manualtoolchange.hal, simulated_home.hal
