consistency of spelling with LinuxCNC #94

Closed smoe closed 1 year ago

smoe commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I just had another look and it worked just fine. Many thanks! Is there anything you would like to add from your side prior to me uploading to Debian? It likely will not be in the next release, but there is a slim chance that it would be, so we better get this right :)

While toying around in mesact I came across some spelling differences to how the LinuxCNC manual spells things. The only bit of value aside optics is a better distinction of Axis and AXIS.

Cheers, Steffen

Hi Steffen, My internet has been down since 2-17 and today I'm using my phone to connect while I wait on another replacement modem.

I wonder why someone changed G code to C-code... it's been G code in the docs ever since I started working on them so many years ago.

FYI, I'm working on a complete redesign of mesact to accomplish reducing the screen size to 800x600 and being able to pick up to 3 daughter cards in any order. Another feature is the ability to skip an axis for example if your stepgen 0 is borked you will be able to skip it in the configuration tool. My intention is the replace this code with the new code at some point.

I'm doing the initial work in a separate repository so mesact won't be broken so long...

I can clear this one up - it was my idea. G-code, LinuxCNC, ... should all be mostly consistent now. From how I read this you area happy enough with me uploading the latest version in master to Debian, right?

Yes
