Thanks! That makes sense

I'm working on adding software encoder support to the BeagleBone PRU
code. Counting up/down is easy, but I'm wondering how to deal with the
index pulses. Both the Mesa VHDL code and the existing software encoder
component have quite a variety of options, and I'm wondering if it is
necessary to su
