ESCape key issues in Pre1-4587 build ???

Since I am a user of LinuxCNC, not a programmer of it.. I have no idea how to do this check. I'd be happy to post whatever you want.. Just tell me the files and I'll post. Thanks. ( Other than some subroutines changes, I have not altered any LinuxCNC config file, except for one HAL file under the direction of andypugh. from the previous full release to this one. )

BTW: My CAM program is MasterCam X5, I haven't updated it in years. I did modify the post long time ago from driving my Tormach PCN1100 machine based on Mach 3 to the new Wood Router using LinuxCNC. If anyone has a true post file for MasterCam X5 to properly drive Gcode for LinuxCNC, I am more than happy to try it. Thanks.

Mpfan should be close enough for Linux cnc.

Sorry but i am using a version with reverse run and external offsets testing the PhillC's configuration for plasma and THC. It just says Pre1 !!! Is there any other way i can find out what build it is?

I just tried an experiment with an up-to-date build of LinuxCNC and can not reproduce the problem.

So, it seems that it might be specific to your setup.

Can you try running one of the sim configs (I used sim/axis/axis_mm) and see if you also see the problem there?

LinuxCNC emulator works perfectly. Does not knock machine off.
