Run GladeVCP from halrun

the spinbutton widget is a bit awkward to get right in glade, which is why there is an example in configs/gladevcp/by-widget/spinbutton .

I don't see that directory when I use the installed 2.5 config picker from the menu... but I see them in the git repo. There must be some kind of bug in the config picker.

Also, I think I found a typo in the python file:

I think that should be "widget" instead of "wedget". I'll change that, but it seemed to run ok as is. I'm gonna play with this tonight and tomorrow and see what I can do with it.

I think BigJohnT was already focusing on lunch, so it is kindof natural potato wedges get in the way.

I have no good understanding what the config picker does, but at least configs/gladevcp/by-widget/spinbutton is in 2.5

probably the stuff under configs/gladevcp needs to be separated into examples and pickable configs.

Many moons ago I have proposed an example directory, but the timeout on my idea suggested the consensus opinion is "example directories are for whimps" , so that's where it wound up.

Perhaps you should take the approach that any suggestion which is not actively veto-ed is accepted?

If you look in the first Glade/Python tutorial at the destroy part and add the hal unload that should take care of that part.

Yes, I thought of trying that late last night - will try it later today.

net spool-step parport.0.pin-02-out <= stepgen.0.step

I can't find "spool-step" anywhere in the docs. Is this information documented anywhere? The Hal manual doesn't address the "parport" in any detail. The naming convention is there, but no examples. I'll go look in the Integrator Manual and see what I can find.

The Integrator manual has the parallel port driver in it. A signal name can be almost anything you like... see this chapter from the Hal Manual.
