I don't know, but I doubt it.

It would be wrong to imagine that there is a master-plan for LinuxCNC, or even a list of planned new features. Things tend to happen only when someone wants them.

Why do you want variable-pitch?

You may be able to do what you want inside the existing capability:

I would very much like to do - but I do not know C

That's no excuse, I had never used C (or any programming language other than VBA) when I decided to add support for the three-phase PWMs in Hostmot2. :-)

Anyway, will jmk's approach to variable-pitch threading work for you?
