User M-Code outputs with a 5i25 / 7i77 not working

I will try it tomorrow. Would that really make a difference since it works enough to give me the text dialog showing me that its running the mcode file from linuxcnc? I know its running the file just that ouput line does not work.

It would verify that there's no problem in the script.
There may also possibly be a path problem (so halcmd does not actually run)

Ok here is what I get and the test I have done..

Type in... or in the terminal and it works just fine.

Run this script... or
and I get... or

Looks like the script is corrupted
Did you use a windows editor (that will break the line endings)

I used notepad++ in Windows and also tried gedit in Linux.

Once you have used notepad, all is lost

Try editing the file in gedit and instead of saving , use the save as
menu selection, and then select unix/linux line ending

I will give that a try however notepad ++ is not the normal windows editor. Its supposed to work fine. I will just retype it all out in gedit so I know there are no issues. Will report back.

Thanks,
Wes

Note that no windows based editor will
work correctly if used to create a unix text file,
unless you specifically tell it to save the file with
unix line endings.

Many modern editors keep whatever line ending style the file
started with (gedit is like this). Gedit does have the ability
(via save as) to change the line ending style.

Another option is using dos2unix on the file

Ok now I did that and am able to finally run the script from the terminal and it works. The problem is now Linuxcnc says invalid M-code. I don't see a file extension. Does Linux hide the file extension? If so how do I go about changing it in Linux?

It might be that its not executable? Forgot to check that. Will have more time tomorrow.
