Schaublin 125-CNC retrofit.

Hi Andy,

I got the Schaublin updated to Trixie and 2.9.8.

I really like the update you did to the look and button layout of Lathe macros. Thanks.

I was trying to work out how to address not having any feedback on the turret arriving in position. Because I am a shit programmer, I tried Chat GPT yesterday.

 

This is the set of requirements I gave:

 

The AI summary is rather accurate.

 

 

After a couple of back and forth, adding requirements, and accepting some AI suggestions, the result is the attached files.
Scary good how fast and efficient this is for a small project with very limited requirements, and how well it documents and explains the code. It would have taken me a few evening to get to this level, and my code would have been a mess of half-arsed work-around to avoid the gaping holes in my programming knowledge.

It failed to compile yesterday, due to some unknown character. I suspect the apple text editor has added some hidden ascii code. The attached files I cut paste into a different text editor. Off to test them now.
Cheers,
Mark

Okay, now I am understanding the pain of AI. I went in circles with compiling errors and format.

Now it compiles, but I get
hal:turret:1: character unknown '  '
and the invisible character search didn't turn up anything.

Any ideas what I have wrong in this comp appreciated...
