edlin is a part of the DOS subsystem even in Win7, just as edit still 
exists there. It needs to be called followed by a file name since there 
is no load command in edlin.

Yes, I know that.  I was being a little facetious trying to run that

Probably true of both of us this time of the morning. :)  But I am working 
on it, the last cup from yesterday is a stain in the bottom of the cup, 
and I made some, and have now been advised by my baby that ha ha, I got 
the first cup, thanks. So my now empty cup is shivering in the room temps 
it has assumed.

Its a fat fingered typu Mark, the 7 s/b a , short for and. Didn't 
work for obvious reasons. ;-)

And the various flavors of ed that I have tangled with on smaller 
machines, could not backup and edit a line above the one in the buffer, 
so you had to save/close, the reopen the file to get to that prior line.

I learned to hate it for exactly that reason.

Re: [Emc-users] G edit and velocity

2014-12-19 Thread Jack Coats
ed was my preferred on CP/M in the day when I didn't have access to wordstar.
ed or edline on DOS was OK.
On Windows I prefer notepad++ (notepad-plus-plus.org), a free editor
that is really simple to use and does proper g-code highlighting.
On Unix/Linux I go to vi, yes there is a vi-vs-emacs cult war, but for
me, vi is simple and I can remember the subset of control commands
easily.  Unix/Linux has ed also, but I prefer vi's full character
screen.

The whole object is to use what is productive, easy for you, and
doesn't get in the way.  I tried to be able to use (1) what I have,
then (2) what I preferred.

 It is a configurable item in your .ini file.

 Geany seems clean and has never trashed a file for me yet, where gedit

 They are quite similar, so no new hot keys to learn for most editing.

 I have set the acc and velocities up high using the config editor but

And Gene did reply:
 I've used Gedit since 2006 with no bugs or trashed files...
 
 JT

I have saved a .hal file, tried to reload lcnc and gotten a screen full of 
errors several times.

On reloading the file, I have found whole paragraphs of stuff from near 
the end of the file, duplicated in the middle of the loadrt or addf phases 
of the file.  Those are easy to fix as they are obvious.  But when it 
inserts a paragraph of page 8 of the file, into the line of code 
configuring a function 8 or so stanza's of code after the addf's are done, 
it gets exasperating to fix.  While carving up the ini and hal files for 
my lathe, I expect I wasted 2 full days repairing that sort of damage.  I 
got to the point before I went searching for an editor, of printing every 
save so I had hard copy one generation back as a recovery tool.

Writing a couple hundred lines of gcode was the same story. I spent 50% of 
my time restoring what I had already written.

So I figured that the one thing linux had going for it was at least 20 
ways to skin the editor function. The first suggestion offered by synaptic 
when I entered text editor was geany, so I installed it.  Some minor 
diffs in the gui but otherwise acts like gedit, but has not trashed a file 
for me yet.

For me, it Just Works(TM) for everything but the printing from its menu, 
but then gedit is similarly broken.  So if I need a printout on dead 
trees, its back to the old standard:

 lp -dBROTHEHL2140 -olandscape filename

I have a vi clone I use on the CoCo's so I am also fairly familiar with 
vi/vim, but there are several things it does well but much slower, like 
scrolling the screen to where you want to work, so while I could use vim, 
I found gedit/geany buckets faster at, and when I am fighting with 
something the editor ought to have a scroll bar to do, its distracting and 
destroys my instant train of thought.  That could be construed to be a 
sign of my age, but if so, its been a problem for 35 years or more.

Anyway, that is why I've come to hate gedit.

 I have saved a .hal file, tried to reload lcnc and gotten a screen full of
 errors several times.

 On reloading the file, I have found whole paragraphs of stuff from near
 the end of the file, duplicated in the middle of the loadrt or addf phases
 of the file.  Those are easy to fix as they are obvious.  But when it
 inserts a paragraph of page 8 of the file, into the line of code
 configuring a function 8 or so stanza's of code after the addf's are done,
 it gets exasperating to fix.  While carving up the ini and hal files for
 my lathe, I expect I wasted 2 full days repairing that sort of damage.  I
 got to the point before I went searching for an editor, of printing every
 save so I had hard copy one generation back as a recovery tool.

 Writing a couple hundred lines of gcode was the same story. I spent 50% of
 my time restoring what I had already written.

 So I figured that the one thing linux had going for it was at least 20
 ways to skin the editor function. The first suggestion offered by synaptic
 when I entered text editor was geany, so I installed it.  Some minor
 diffs in the gui but otherwise acts like gedit, but has not trashed a file
 for me yet.

 For me, it Just Works(TM) for everything but the printing from its menu,
 but then gedit is similarly broken.  So if I need a printout on dead
 trees, its back to the old standard:

  lp -dBROTHEHL2140 -olandscape filename

 I have a vi clone I use on the CoCo's so I am also fairly familiar with
 vi/vim, but there are several things it does well but much slower, like
 scrolling the screen to where you want to work, so while I could use vim,
 I found gedit/geany buckets faster at, and when I am fighting with
 something the editor ought to have a scroll bar to do, its distracting and
 destroys my instant train of thought.  That could be construed to be a
 sign of my age, but if so, its been a problem for 35 years or more.

 Anyway, that is why I've come to hate gedit.


Well, there's always Xemacs.

 So have I Mark.  On my coco's running os9, its the only editor I can run
 with a 56k buffer on os9 level 2.  On a machine whose cpu can only see
 64kb at a time.  There it is my goto editor.


I've used vi for so long, it's pretty much automatic.  vi is a text editor,
not a word processor, which is what the Windoze users have so gotten used
to.  Once you've gotten familiar with the way vi works, it's a pretty
powerful utility.

And you can't use much of anything else when your windows manager is broke
and you have to edit your xorg.conf, or you have to fix your machine in
single user mode.  No windows manager, no gedit or geany.  ;-)

Eh, if you're just using Xemacs as a simple GUI editor it's no more
complicated or easier than gedit or geany,  It is a hell of a lot more
powerful than those two if you really want to use it's capabilities though.

 I've used vi for so long, it's pretty much automatic.  vi is a text editor,
 not a word processor, which is what the Windoze users have so gotten used
 to.  Once you've gotten familiar with the way vi works, it's a pretty
 powerful utility.

 And you can't use much of anything else when your windows manager is broke
 and you have to edit your xorg.conf, or you have to fix your machine in
 single user mode.  No windows manager, no gedit or geany.  ;-)

I used to use EDLIN and COPY CON to write autoexec.bat and config.sys 
files, and DEBUG to low level format MFM hard drives. ;)

And nostagia hits, launch a cmd prompt and enter edlin. Hmm an error 
message that c:\Windows\SysWOW64\edlin.exe isn't compatible with 64bit 
Windows. What the??? Says I should contact the vendor to see if a 64 bit 
version is available...

Which is crazier? That Microsoft includes edlin.exe with 64bit Windows 7 
Ultimate or that it's included *but cannot be used*? Edit is in there 
too, but also doesn't work. Tech Net says these are not available in 
64 bit - so WTH are the program files *included* with 64 bit versions?

Geany seems clean and has never trashed a file for me yet, where gedit

They are quite similar, so no new hot keys to learn for most editing.

 I have set the acc and velocities up high using the config editor but

For me Gedit is good but honestly Geany is better.
Because I'm using Debian Wheezy and Gedit is not installed as default, I've
installed Geany that is for me better.

 Geany seems clean and has never trashed a file for me yet, where gedit
 has, several times.

 They are quite similar, so no new hot keys to learn for most editing.

  I have set the acc and velocities up high using the config editor but
  when running the program, the velocity is about 1/10 I specified. What
  is wrong and how do I change this ?
 
  Thanks Wallace

 Hi Chris.
 For me Gedit is good but honestly Geany is better.
 Because I'm using Debian Wheezy and Gedit is not installed as default, I've
 installed Geany that is for me better.

Re: [Emc-users] G edit and velocity

2014-12-17 Thread Marius Liebenberg
This is very strange to hear as I have used Gedit for a long time and 
never had a file trashed. Maybe if it is called from another program it 
could be problematic but as an editor I had no issues.

Wallace,

From the command line: which gedit

If that doesn't work (may not be in your path) try:   find / -name gedit
-print

First command should report back really quick.  Second might take a while,
depending on the size of your computer system.

You have to specify the editor in your ini file. If your on Debian you 
have to add Gedit.

Re: [Emc-users] G edit and velocity

2014-12-13 Thread alex chiosso
Hi Wallace .
I got the same problem when I made a new installation using the Debian
Wheezy package.
As John told you , you should specify the editor program you want to use
into the INI file.
Keep in mind that Debian comes with an editor called Mousepad .
So if you want Gedit working you should download it and install it and then
declare it as the dafault editor into the INI file.
