Tool table location was created by elf
LinuxCNC probe basic can load the tool table, but executing a file fails with tool (#) not found. The tool exists in that number slot.
Changing it to this and putting a copy of tool.tbl in the same folder as the ini works:[EMCIO]
EMCIO = io
CYCLE_TIME = 0.100
TOOL_TABLE = ~/linuxcnc/configs/resources/ToolTables/tool.tbl
I use the same tool table file for several machines and configurations, so it would be nice to only have one copy floating around.[EMCIO]
EMCIO = io
CYCLE_TIME = 0.100TOOL_TABLE = tool.tbl

I would expect any LinuxCNC GUI to use the TOOL_TABLE from the INI.
However, searching the Probe Basic repository on Github comes up blank for TOOL_TABLE, so either this is just an artefact of the terrible GitHub search engine, or Probe Basic does not look for that INI entry.
Out of interest, what happens if you simply omit that entry?

I know this is a bit old, but I also had a problem loading the tool table from a directory specified in the .ini file.
After a bit of investigation it appears that specifying the location as
TOOL_TABLE = ~/millerfiles/defaultTT.tbl
does not work, but using
TOOL_TABLE = /home/plasma2/millerfiles/defaultTT.tbl
works fine.
