Nothing but \n's Jon.  Including the last character.

And I am getting discouraged, even at 2.5 ipm, 2k revs, and about a 60 
thou per pass cut, I just buried the broken off, 2nd 1/32" mill in this, 
so far down and flush my needle point tweezers have nothing to get a 
grip on.  I thought about drilling a small hole beside it, and found I 
do not have a drill chuck on the premises that will grip that small a 
drill.

I have a pin vise that might, out in the other, now cold building.  If I 
can find it.

Good, black Gaboon Ebony has gone up, I had to pay $99 for a piece a bit 
bigger than the one I started with a year back.  Not as thick, but wider 
& a few inches longer.  But I'm $1300 into this project, I may as well 
finish it out the best I can do. :)
 
Thanks Jon.

Cheers, Gene Heskett

As somebody else mentioned, some software may not process 
the last line of a file unless it ENDS with a line end
character (not sure if default is LF or CR).  I have seen 
this with other software.

And, maybe, it is all because of the editor you use to 
create the G-code.  Linux-c++ tries to adapt to the cr/lf 
format of the file, but may get it wrong in some cases.  You 
can check the line end scheme in particular files with
od -c  | more

and see what exact hidden characters are there.

Send Marcus a basket of flowers and a 6 pack of his favorite suds, it 
works.  Thank you Marcus.

M2 M02, mox nics (I can't spell the German source words, wet ram has 
faded) Jon, its there, see the editor window to the left in that screen 
snapshot.  No change there in the editor followed by a reload gets rid 
of what is to me a useless error report. All it is, is an extra mouse 
click to get rid of it before you can proceed. Begining the file with 
a % as the first line, or just a comment containing the name & copyright 
also makes no difference.  Nothing makes it go away.

EOF is EOF to me.  Can it not be to LinuxCNC?

M2 does function nicely to stop execution at that point, I've used it to 
step thru a program looking for an error many times.  So it does have a 
use, just not as an EOF marker.  IMO of course.

I have this ebony_button.ngc code looking like it should work, but now I 
need to make a jig to hold the workpiece so I can treat it like a step 
and repeat.  The larger square button in the upper boxes fingers I need 
at least 132 of, 3 at a time from a 2" wide slice of ebony, leaving some 
scrap on one edge. I think I'll need another piece, $60, as I only have 
a hair less than an inch thick from the first 2x2x12 piece.  I need a 
laser cutter, its cut is thinner than a 1/2" wood slicer from Highland 
Hdwe in Hotlanta, which is around .032 with care.  And yet to be ordered 
is $240 worth of lid-stay hinges from Rockler.

The lack of density of the ebony surprised me. I believe it would float 
in water, till it got soaked at least.  It slurps up finish like a 
sponge on the first coat.

Thanks for the flowers Jeshua.

Well, at 81 and somewhat failing health, DM-II, arthritis is pinching a 
nerve in my back which makes me think the calf of my left leg is 
cramped, PSA north of 10, & pushing a stick if I have to walk 50 yards 
or more.

I am greatfull for every day I spent fishing in earlier years.  I've been 
told by those who should know, that when one is fishing, their life 
clock is stopped.  And I spent a decade in the Black Hills, catching a 
few empty stock tanks full of trout, with an occasional Walleye to 
sweeten the skillet. And of course venison was on the menu from Sept to 
whenever the freezers were empty in the spring.

No idea how much time I might have left, but despite the ailments, I do 
try to enjoy whats left for me to enjoy.  That includes poking fun at 
myself when I manage to foul things up.

Colorfull?  Yes, too much so for some folks taste.  But I am NOT Bobby 
Byrd, who could tell somebody to go to hell in such flowery language 
they looked forward to the trip. :)  I usually specify it much more 
precisely. ;-)

Good evening,

Gene, I should mention that you are about the most colorful character I have 
had the pleasure of making an online acquaintance with over the years.

I should like to shake your hand Good Sir! You add so much to this list. Well 
thats all I really have to say on this subject; just had to be said.
