A big thank you from me too for keeping this excellent software going
and up to date!!!!
I used LCNC to re-brain an old Emcoturn 220P lathe and am now using it
commercially to try and make a living (I couldn't have afforded to do
that otherwise). So, it's literally life changing :)
Thanks again,
Pete

LinuxCNC 2.8.2 has been released.
This is mainly a bugfix release, though it also adds a new HAL
component ("sendkeys") for creating input device events from HAL pins.
All users are encouraged to update.
In addition there is a new RTAI kernel based on 4.19.195. This comes
with a new version of RTAI 5.3. Both should be automatically installed
with the 2.8.2-rt version of LinuxCNC. If you are using the ISO
install or know that you are running the preempt-rt kernel this need
not concern you.
