Possible to remap M9? was created by underscore

Is it possible to remap M9? I’d like to add a third “coolant” option, namely air blast (e.g. by implementing M207 using digital out Hal pins). I’d like my air to be turned off by M9, just like M7 and M8.

According to the documentation it should not be possible, but even the examples contain m codes that shouldn’t be allowed but work.

I tried to remap, but that totally kills M9 all together.

I'm using REMAP = M9 modalgroup=8 ngc=m9extended

I don't get an error message just the "old" behavior of M9

I looked in the source code and M9 is not allowed to be remapped.
Not sure why.

I changed it and mostly had success remapping with python other then the active Mcode display did not update till another MDI command was sent.

I'm considering adding the change.

Ok I just pushed the change - you'll have to wait for the buildbot to update.
Here is the python remap I tried, which just does what the original did.
i didn;t try remap with NGC.

As I said the controls do seem to turn off but the active gcode of m7/8 don;t change until another gcode is run.
Let me know what happens for you.
