LinuxCNC Features - a kind of NGCGUI

Guilty, as charged. My apologies. I took his question -

Are there any standard subroutines for lathe machining?

in a literal sense and did not even think to wonder about LCNC specifically. That said, I'm kind of shocked that LCNC does not support G71 and the like... such a standard kind of thing... I better read some more. Wow.

Even G0 is not handled the same way with all controls... so never assume.

Hi,

I've found a bug, but do not know where is it, in linuxcnc or in it's docs
The docs says:
#<_x> - Return absolute machine X coordinate. Same as #5420.
(here www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gcode/o...ub:system-parameters )

But if we run the following code we have got (0,0) all the time. So it looks like #<_x> is relative coordinates.
Can somebody check it on other versions of linuxcnc?
My is 2.6.0-pre...
PS We have a lot of new results on Features.
A lot of interface improvements and new subroutines for lathe.

I think that is only on Master and not on any branch.

And what's about #5420-5429? Are they all the same?

It could be a typo in Master as I doubt the numbered parameters have changed behavior from the 2.5 branch.

5420-5428 - Current Position including offsets in current program units (X Y Z A B C U V W)
