Thanks for those ideas. I really would like black buttons with white
lettering, but the only way to get translucent buttons is in white. I
guess I could consider reversing it, and infilling the engraving.
My initial experiments didn't work well doing infilling, so I did one using
a black auto

I doubt it. Some companies won't talk to you unless you are willing to
spend $50k, the next may want $1k, its a gamble. They do put an stl of the
button on their website, I guess if I had a two color 3d printer I could do
it that way?

That is sort-of OK, though that assumes that an unlinked pin is zero.

Is this an oversight, or just considered as too big for a man page?

Greetings;
IMO the near module needs its input pins renamed in base0, having modules
pin numbers in both base1 and base0 is confusing.

hal by itself is not a command you would execute from the terminal.
man hal otoh gives a general description of hal.

halscope would be an example of a command that doesn't have a man-page
I don't see an easy way to make multicolored silicon rubber buttons, though.
I shouldn't even open my mind to doing silicon, its one of those things
that is tempting though.
I guess I could try making my own buttons with translucent black acrylic.

Gene,
You can get aircraft breakers, designed for 32 V DC, and some are
quite small. They have push/pull kinds that pop out when tripped,
and bat handle types used as on/off switches, too. New can be
expensive, but they may be available on the surplus market.
I have a few.
