Gscreen - a GTK / Glade / Python based screen

Michael is hosting gscreen on his git repo.
git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git

It's still based on master branch.

We added another led to the estop button for machine on.
now push once estop reset
push again machine off
push again estop / machine off

you can hide the pointer and zoom the plot with buttons.

Ok, idiot question. I installed it - how do I start gscreen?

-m

press estop twice
once to reset
once to switch machine on
2 green leds and your good to go

I mean the command line

$ gscreen <and what goes here?>

-m

just change the display entry in your INI file to gscreen

now you must change the line in the INI file.
under the head [DISPLAY]
look for:
DISPLAY = AXIS
change it to
DISPLAY = gscreen

then run linuxcnc normally and select that config.

It you get a weird number for VO percentage and the screen is too big for the display
add a DEFAULT_VELOCITY = something sane under the [TRAJ] heading
