Two things I notice:

1. SUBROUTINE_PATH: "The list must contain no intervening whitespace." So remove the spaces. You can also try to remove the part after the colon, shouldn't be needed.

2. (msg, diameter circel is #1) --> (msg, diameter circel is [#1])

If that doesn't help have a look at the gmoccapy sim config:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/2.8/co...moccapy/gmoccapy.ini
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/2.8/co...macros/increment.ngc

Sorry, please ignore what I said before, to remove "diameter" this is actually the parameter it asks you for when you run the script.

My macro icons disappear when I rename my macro folder (did this as a test). So I assume your search path was/is not correct in your INI.

So what exactly was the error? Would be good to know for other users who might land here.
