Gscreen - a GTK / Glade / Python based screen

If you wish to have gscreen as well as the original screen then instead of changing the DISPLAY = setting

under the [HAL] heading
add:
HALCMD = loadusr gscreen -ini gscreen.ini

changing the ini filename as appropriate.

thanks for that Chris

this look svery intresting nice work keep it up
ill try and give it a test drive when i have afree afternoon

rob

just got to try this out

very nice i must say

would it be possible to have a colour system on the program edit screen. ie , rapid txt lines in red, feeds in green etc , as my full editor on windows we use alot has this sort of thing and it becomes very quick eye reff after awhile,

would it be possible to add a offset table for work coordinates to view and edit, g54,g55 etc

I tried gscreen using the zipped patch above and it looks good. So now it's my turn to ask a dumb question.
I want to get the latest version so I tried to clone it into a new directory with
git clone git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git emc2-dev
but git complained:
remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout

Is there a way I can do this?

u need to do this from master git

so dont know if u did a new pull or not but below will not hert

in the Git tree to wish to apply it to
git reset --hard remotes/origin/master
git pull origin master

git merge git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git gscreen_master
or if it fails try
git pull git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git gscreen_master

then do config make etc

rob

it is possible to see the current work offsets. double click the plot area and set show offsets in the preference page.
yes a tool offsets editor is on the to do list.
chamging the colors of the gcode text should be possible but not in Gscreen. I'll look into how to do that.

Rob,
Thanks for the reply. Still having problems.

git reset --hard remotes/origin/master
git pull origin master

That worked fine.

git merge git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git gscreen_master

That didn't work:
fatal: 'git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git' does not point to a commit

git pull git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git gscreen_master

That also didn't work:
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref gscreen_master

I'm not sure if it's right, but I inserted http:// to make the git URL. Otherwise it wasn't recognized as a remote reference. I also tried git:// but I don't have access.

git pull git://git.mah.priv.at/emc2-dev.git gscreen_master

should get you there

That did it. Thank you very much.
