So the missing word was "motor". Fixing thar led to a duplicate error, elsewhere in the file, and fixing that makes it run. But now I've a couple chops in the skillet and the rest of dinner laid out for the microwave, so it will be after dinner before I get a chance to check it. One thing is bothering me about the halmeter readings from lincurve.0.out though they look as if they've been subjected to a large multipier, 1000 x or so and the max programmed is .x-val-01 is 0.0065", mainly to test the polarity of the corrections. > -- > atp > "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is > designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and > lunatics." > — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's > most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
