Halshow + HalReport

I was having a look at Halshow and noticed that if gives a comprehensive list of all hal pins etc.

I then ran halreport and noticed that it just seems to list the connected pins or those that were being utilised / expecting an input or output.

The simple question is: is there any way to get the detail of halshow in a printable document?

The more detail bit is because I've changed my Mesa 7i76 to mode 2 (sserial_port_0=20xxxx)  (i.e. the 2xMPG pins are available) and hence when I run halshow the enc0.count etc etc are available.

but when I run hal report I don't see the enc0 (or 1).count and other associated pins (scale etc etc) as they are obviously not connected to anything yet.

Hence I was just wondering if there was a way to export what halshow sees / has available or more fully than halreport does.

Thanks,

Does this generate a list you have in mind?

what is halReport?

halreport (maybe I confused things with my camel case).... thought it would emphasise the purpose.

halcmd show pin > HAL_pinlist.txt

I'll give it a go later, thanks very much for the pointer.
