[00:37:08] <skunkworks> assuming that . ./scripts/rip-environment is correct
[00:37:30] <JT-Shop> is it rip-environment now?
[00:38:22] <skunkworks> the emc-enviroment deosn't exist in the scripts
[00:38:27] <skunkworks> I assumed ;)
[00:38:39] <skunkworks> this was head
[00:39:18] <JT-Shop> hard to keep up lately
[00:42:33] <skunkworks> it made without errors
[00:45:24] <JT-Shop> hmmm, it takes 1 3/4 ounces of FG black powder per charge...
[00:55:26] <skunkworks> yikes
[00:56:43] <clytle374> rip-environment is what I'm using.
[00:57:08] <clytle374> What takes 1 3/4 oz?

[02:25:35] <jepler> clytle374: yes. if the buffer isn't big enough to hold all the data that hm2 is printing, then it would be truncated
[02:25:49] <jepler> that's my line of thinking, but I don't really even know if that's an accurate restatement of (that part of) the problem.
[02:27:31] <skunkworks> I get the same error with 2.5 checkout. (sim)
[02:27:49] <seb_kuzminsky> skunkworks: the error in the pastebin above?
[02:27:52] <skunkworks> yes
[02:30:27] <seb_kuzminsky> strange... are you running rip? is your clone up to date?
[02:30:50] <skunkworks> I just pulled it this afternooon..
[02:31:29] <skunkworks> git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git linuxcnc
[02:31:58] <seb_kuzminsky> what's the output of "tree /home/samco/linuxcnc"?
[02:32:08] <skunkworks> then http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Installing_LinuxCNC#Building_emc2_simulator
[02:34:50] <jepler> I can reproduce the problem when ~/linuxcnc is the source directory
[02:35:02] <skunkworks> http://pastebin.com/2368GR57
[02:35:09] <skunkworks> really - funny
[02:35:14] <skunkworks> what are the odds ;)
[02:36:17] <jepler> I am surprised this is not a preexisting bug, though
[02:37:46] <jepler> pull and see if this fixes it
[02:37:53] <CIA-99> 03jepler 07v2.5_branch * rf02f871af728 10/tcl/bin/pickconfig.tcl: don't crash when the source lives at ~/linuxcnc
[02:38:18] <jepler> I don't see why this wouldn't have happened before the rename, but I would also be surprised it went unreported for so long too
[02:39:02] <seb_kuzminsky> oh right
[02:42:52] <skunkworks> jepler: Yay - that works. Thanks! (I seem to find the odd ones)

[14:10:51] <dgarr> ngcgui patches: add warning, minor rebranding changes: http://www.panix.com/~dgarrett/stuff/ngcgui_23jan.mbox
[14:42:05] <skunkworks> something to try... I noticed this on the k&t but thought I would test it in 2.5. if you start a program by hitting the step button (so the program starts in paused) step through the program then 'unpause' it. You get an error popup 'program ended with no percent sign or program end'
[14:42:12] <skunkworks> this happens with the splash screen also.
[14:42:24] <skunkworks> (just did it in sim axis)
[14:43:41] <skunkworks> everything seems to run correctly.. Just should not get that error,
[15:01:09] <alex_joni> skunkworks: don't go there :)
[15:01:32] <alex_joni> pause,step,resume never worked as they should (100%)
[15:01:44] <skunkworks> heh
[15:01:55] <alex_joni> a lot of people tried to fix every case, but you fix one, and something else breaks
[15:01:56] <skunkworks> it works - just pops up an error ;)
[15:02:05] <skunkworks> I hear you
[15:02:09] <alex_joni> yeah, still better than the other combinations ;)
[15:03:24] -!- stormlight has quit [Quit: stormlight]
[15:08:40] <seb_kuzminsky> skunkworks: that's a strange bug
[15:08:58] <skunkworks> did you re-produce it?
[15:09:04] -!- jonnyATroot has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[15:09:05] <seb_kuzminsky> would you make a bug report on sf please? so it's less likely to get dropped
[15:09:09] <skunkworks> sure
[15:09:20] <seb_kuzminsky> i haven't reproduced it yet, but i'll take a look at it
[15:09:27] <seb_kuzminsky> i suck at axis debugging though...
[15:09:41] <cradek> it's not axis, it's task
[15:09:47] <seb_kuzminsky> oh... ouch
[15:09:50] <skunkworks> It is funny - it took me a few before I figured out it wasn't me an related to starting paused.
[15:10:05] <cradek> skunkworks: good job finding the pattern - I bet you're right about it
[15:10:13] <seb_kuzminsky> well that's ok, i suck at task too!
[15:10:23] <seb_kuzminsky> bbl shower
[15:10:26] <alex_joni> I'm sure it's been this way in 2.3.0 too
[15:10:31] <cradek> starting with a step is pretty different than starting with a run, then pause and step
[15:10:36] <alex_joni> cradek: right
[15:10:40] <jepler> cradek: any concerns about applying dgarr's patch to 2.5?
[15:10:42] <cradek> even though it looks the same from the outside
[15:10:51] <skunkworks> right
[15:10:59] <cradek> looking
[15:11:03] <alex_joni> but iirc fixing this caused other problems (like resume not working, or run from line skipping some lines, or something like that)
[15:11:59] <jepler> dgarr: what about fname starting with e.g., .ngcgui
[15:12:36] -!- jonnyATroot has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[15:34:53] <dgarr> jepler: i don't undersstand your question
[15:38:05] <jepler> dgarr: + || [string first "." $fname] == 0
[15:38:23] <jepler> it looks like you're anticipating that fname starts as "./something"
[15:38:33] <jepler> but I think your test would also match ".ngcgui"
[15:38:44] <jepler> or ".something", in case that's more clear
[15:40:30] <dgarr> jepler: correct, and it works as i expected it to
[15:59:33] <jepler> huh, to my surprise you can name a subroutine with a dot as the first character

[16:38:13] <IchGucksLive> jt ?
[16:38:18] <psha[work]> hi noble knight fighting with cruel git :)
[16:38:42] <IchGucksLive> psha is working i need to get the git clone with 2.4.7
[16:39:00] <IchGucksLive> so how is this command
[16:39:20] <IchGucksLive> or isent it a git its a branch so what the hick B)
[16:39:51] <IchGucksLive> i ned to get a system work then make a patch and spred the patch out to the users
[16:39:51] <psha[work]> git checkout -b subj origin/v2.4_branch
[16:39:55] <psha[work]> to get 2.4 branch
[16:40:02] <IchGucksLive> ok
[16:40:16] <psha[work]> or 'git tag | grep 2.4.7' and then instead of origin/v2.4_branch place correct tag name
[16:40:25] <IchGucksLive> the folder to get that in is chooseble
[16:40:56] <psha[work]> in cloned repository
[16:41:00] <IchGucksLive> tag is the folder name
[16:41:03] <psha[work]> i bet you've some :)
[16:41:09] <psha[work]> tag is 'named commit'
[16:41:43] <IchGucksLive> i dont now where to start
[16:41:46] <psha[work]> readable name of commit to use later for tasks like this one
[16:42:04] <psha[work]> go to cloned git dir
[16:42:13] <psha[work]> if you don't have one - create it
[16:42:22] <psha[work]> but i bet you've
[16:42:30] <IchGucksLive> i got a clean linuxcnc HDD
[16:42:43] <IchGucksLive> everything from git is lost
[16:42:57] <psha[work]> so create new

[16:50:09] <awallin> cradek: http://www.anderswallin.net/2012/01/with-freeserifbolditalic-dont-ever-write-zj/
[16:50:57] <IchGucksLive> B)
[16:51:28] <IchGucksLive> awallin: do you got a working copy of this
[16:51:39] <IchGucksLive> or still in dev mode
[16:51:49] <IchGucksLive> as i try the xyuv
[16:52:36] <awallin> the git clone gives you everything. run that first. then checkout 2.4
[16:53:03] <awallin> I don't think I have time to work on xyuv now... sorry.
[16:53:15] <IchGucksLive> is it still emc2.git or changed already to linuxcnc.git
[16:53:39] <IchGucksLive> i got the xyuv run
[16:53:46] <awallin> I don't know
[16:54:34] <IchGucksLive> awallin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMo19ivradQ
[16:56:35] <cradek> awallin: oh wow! how frustrating.
[16:57:34] <cradek> awallin: also, that lowercase z is ghastly
[16:57:40] <IchGucksLive> awallin: you coudt set a letter distance to avoid this
[16:58:21] <cradek> looks like the horizontal kerning is different in ttt vs inkscape. I wonder which is right.
[17:00:41] <cradek> awesome, your v-carving test
[17:00:52] <cradek> that's really terrific, I've wanted to be able to do that for years.
[17:01:51] <awallin> I was looking at how "offset" propagates in ttt, but it obviously works in many many cases so there can't be that much wrong.
[17:02:02] <IchGucksLive> Switched to a new branch 'subj'
[17:02:08] <IchGucksLive> i think im done
[17:02:22] <IchGucksLive> now start changing
[17:02:38] <awallin> the next thing for v-carving would be to order the toolpaths to minimize rapid-traverses..
[17:02:47] Vq_ is now known as Vq
[17:03:00] <cradek> awallin: maybe there's the basic horizontal offset (which I bet it gets right) and then perhaps some more special kerning offsets?
[17:03:12] <IchGucksLive> there is a good script on PCB-G-code
[17:03:24] <IchGucksLive> awallin: its open
[17:03:55] <IchGucksLive> also the g-code optimaser has a nice workaround for this
[17:04:12] <cradek> awallin: jepler and I had a very good answer for that traveling salesman question for points or (equivalently) closed paths, but not really for vectors
[17:05:24] <jepler> well .. it was quite far from optimal, but still enough to eliminate hundreds of inches of G0 moves
[17:05:49] <IchGucksLive> and that is all that counts
[17:06:22] <awallin> there are many heuristics I guess. I only tried boost's metric_tsp which deals with the symmetric problem (not suitable for paths)
[17:06:23] <cradek> I think I recall the algorithm guaranteed that it was <= 200% of optimal
[17:07:00] <awallin> yes, boost's one is <2x also. it first constructs a minimum spanning tree, and then traverses that
[17:07:01] <IchGucksLive> PCB milling is path orientated
[17:07:13] <cradek> awallin: about how many paths are there per letter?
[17:07:24] <cradek> same algorithm I bet, sounds familiar
[17:07:57] <jepler> find a minimum spanning tree and then traverse it in a certain way
[17:08:21] <awallin> "E" over here has maybe 12 "Y-joints". I think an "Y-joint" allways leads to a lift. maybe. http://www.anderswallin.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/emc2_vcarve2.png
[17:08:38] <jepler> fwiw showing "zj" in Tk in that same font gives a touching pair of letters
[17:09:25] <cradek> seems like if it does one letter at a time, the rapids (considering the whole job) are already fairly minimized
[17:09:50] <cradek> that sample doesn't look very bad.
[17:10:35] <awallin> libreoffice gives touching letters also.
[17:10:52] <cradek> huh, maybe inkscape is "wrong"
[17:11:05] <cradek> (along with, obviously, the font)
[17:11:26] <awallin> currently it doesn't necessarily finish one letter before starting on the next one. I think.

[17:26:17] <IchGucksLive> the standart on the livecd is 2.4.7
[17:26:18] <jepler> not that ttt was using it
[17:27:09] <IchGucksLive> what went wrong
[17:28:38] <IchGucksLive> git checkout -b subj origin/v2.4_branch can i do there 2.4.7_branch
[17:29:32] <jepler> with 'git checkout' you can use branch names or tag names.
[17:29:37] <IchGucksLive> git branch -r <- this gives me the available or
[17:29:44] <jepler> you can list branch names with 'git branch -a' and tag names with 'git tag'
[17:29:51] <jepler> v2.4.7 is a tag
[17:30:13] <jepler> This will start 'subj' at the v2.4.7 tag: git checkout -b subj v2.4.7
[17:30:59] <IchGucksLive> can i change subj to xyuv
[17:31:05] <jepler> yes
[17:31:07] <IchGucksLive> or is this fix naming
[17:31:21] <jepler> you should name your branch something that means something to you
[17:32:14] <IchGucksLive> i did and it gives back the files i alwredy changed
[17:32:28] <IchGucksLive> so there are now been modyfied back ?
[17:32:39] <IchGucksLive> M lib/python/hershey.py
[17:33:01] <IchGucksLive> Switched to a new branch 'xyuv_foam'
[17:33:46] <jepler> "M .../hershey.py" means that the changes you already made to hershey.py have been preserved
[17:34:10] <jepler> if this had not been possible, then you would have gotten a message that said "error: you have local changes to ".../hershey.py"; cannot switch branches"
[17:34:58] <IchGucksLive> ok on that . can i compile this git xyuv_foam to work under the local

[17:36:13] <cradek> awallin: have you made any progress figuring out where the wavies come from?
[17:36:32] <jepler> I'm pretty sure they're in the font
[17:36:39] -!- jonnyATroot has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[17:39:11] <awallin> yes, I think they are in the font definition. If you really wanted to check you could maybe calculate a start/end tangent for all conics/cubics and compare to the next conic/cubic/line
[17:39:42] <IchGucksLive> jepler: Still emc 2.4.6
[17:39:52] <cradek> I guess the fonts are probably drawn by a monkey, er, person dragging points around until it looks pleasant enough

[17:41:29] <jepler> IchGucksLive: how did you determine the version? If it is by looking in the VERSION file, this file was mistakenly not updated when the 2.4.7 release was made.
[17:41:37] <jepler> the contents of this file are the one shown in the splash screen
[17:45:08] -!- TRW_Aguascalient has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[17:46:07] <awallin> I've sent an email to the freetype mailinglist. Let's see if anyone answers..
[17:46:40] <jepler> I suspect that this font uses GPOS for kerning, and that inkscape is using the gpos data (possibly via pango)
[17:46:44] <jepler> not sure
[17:47:22] <jepler> freetype doesn't seem to have any API to deal with GPOS (besides validating it); you're expected to use some other APIs to make sense of the data if it is present

[18:19:03] -!- GoSebGo [GoSebGo!~Seb@107.24.161.1] has joined #linuxcnc-devel
[18:20:11] <IchGucksLive> i think its best to remove the folder ones more and start over to first get a 2.4.7 copy
[18:22:11] <IchGucksLive> done hard drive is linuxcnc clean
[18:23:51] <psha> heh
[18:23:59] <IchGucksLive> this is what im living on ->The below tips can feel very daunting; don't panic. Your day-to-day life with git is going to be very simple:
[18:24:08] <psha> if you always puge everything you get it won't move you closer
[18:24:14] <IchGucksLive> for now 10 days SIMPLE
[18:24:27] <psha> s/puge/purge
[18:24:47] <psha> have you tried 'git checkout -b subj 2.4.7-tag-name?
[18:24:56] <psha> or just removed cloned tree as usual?
[18:25:19] <psha> tag name for 2.4.7 is 'v2.4.7' (without quotes)
[18:25:23] <IchGucksLive> i startet here http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Git#Configure_your_identity
[18:25:41] <psha> nice
[18:25:58] <IchGucksLive> git clone ssh://developername@git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git emc2-dev
[18:26:13] <IchGucksLive> is this the next step but this will lead in 2.6-pre
[18:26:34] <psha> this will lead to repository clone
[18:26:41] <psha> 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6
[18:26:46] <psha> and everything else you need
[18:26:49] <psha> and don't need
[18:27:01] <psha> but you have to choose _what_ you need
[18:27:02] <IchGucksLive> so clone what
[18:27:06] <psha> clone that
[18:27:11] <psha> there is only one repository
[18:27:25] <psha> git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git
[18:27:44] <psha> (not considering local repositories like mine git://psha.org.ru/psha/emc2.git)
[18:27:47] <IchGucksLive> ok i go now for -> git clone ssh://developername@git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git xyuv_foam
[18:28:11] <psha> why ssh?
[18:28:28] <psha> you have ssh access to git.linuxcnc.org?
[18:28:42] <IchGucksLive> please give me acorrect terminal entry i dont now what to do i only want clone 2.4.7
[18:29:18] <IchGucksLive> git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git xyuv-foam
[18:29:25] <IchGucksLive> that is the command
[18:29:31] <psha> http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Git#Anonymous_checkouts
[18:29:34] <psha> yes
[18:29:53] <psha> that's correct
[18:30:39] <IchGucksLive> ok done files inside
[18:31:02] <IchGucksLive> now local install or branch xyuv
[18:31:34] <psha> now go to git dir
[18:31:34] <IchGucksLive> oh now first the 2.4.7 you said
[18:31:44] <IchGucksLive> . git
[18:31:56] <psha> http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Git#Work_with_branches
[18:31:57] <IchGucksLive> or toplevel
[18:32:03] <psha> toplevel git dir
[18:32:24] <psha> you should never go inside .git directory - it's for git specific files
[18:32:32] <psha> xuyv-foam
[18:32:37] <IchGucksLive> got it
[18:32:49] <psha> checkout branch
[18:33:51] <IchGucksLive> one second
[18:33:51] <jepler> (there's a version of the live cd with 2.4.7 on it?)

[20:18:17] <cradek> much nicer!
[20:18:53] <cradek> but why are you getting g2 and not g5?
[20:19:02] <jepler> because I started with ttt 3.0 :-/
[20:19:13] <cradek> doh
[20:19:44] <jepler> Applying patch ttt.c with 6 rejects...
[20:19:45] <jepler> sigh
[20:20:08] <cradek> I wish git am would do inline rejects
[20:20:25] <cradek> it's hard to coerce it when it just refuses the whole thing and does nothing
[20:25:10] <IchGucksLive> i see also a renaming of the ngc files in examples shout i name the test foam-xyuv.ngc
[20:25:21] <IchGucksLive> or xyuf-foam-test.ngc
[20:25:53] <jepler> foam-xyuv.ngc sounds fine to me
[20:26:42] <IchGucksLive> i think this is good and speeks out itselv
[20:26:58] <IchGucksLive> maybe 2planeview
[20:27:21] <IchGucksLive> ok i go with the short one
[20:27:44] <jepler> when you add a new file, you have to tell git to track its contents: git add foam-xyuv.ngc
[20:28:39] <IchGucksLive> -f force
[20:32:54] <IchGucksLive> i got a error that never acourd on the other versions Axis B can only be moved alone is ther no 9axis sync in place in 2.6-pre

[20:52:47] <IchGucksLive> so next up to the mailing list ?
[20:53:46] <jepler> I did a quick review of the patch and it looks good (no unintended changes)
[20:53:57] <IchGucksLive> i 2
[20:54:07] <IchGucksLive> me2
[20:54:23] <jepler> yes, I think you should send it to the mailing list
[20:54:38] <IchGucksLive> ok
[20:55:38] <jepler> there are probably some improvements to be made but I can see that this is going to be very useful to people with this type of machine
[20:56:15] <jepler> one small example: in the regular view, it's possible to click a line in the preview. when you do, it is highlighted and you are shown the corresponding line of gcode
[20:56:25] <jepler> in the xyuv mode this doesn't work (yet)
[20:56:59] <jepler> this does not stop your code from being useful
[20:58:03] <jepler> bbl
[21:01:54] <IchGucksLive> i see it is improving

[21:12:48] <IchGucksLive> do you think

[22:08:45] <andypugh> I am wondering if my lathe has the torque to manage the job, thinking about it.
[22:09:24] <cradek> maybe you'll have to get creative and do it in many different offset passes
[22:09:41] <cradek> I bet it's very hard to do (need torque at very low spindle speed)
[22:10:50] <andypugh> Maybe after I make the electromagnetic epicyclic reducer. (One of those ideas I can't convince myself I will ever try)

[23:52:14] <cradek> jepler: http://pastebin.com/4GsYMhMx
[23:53:28] <cradek> the change steve b wants is a one-liner as long as you don't care that you break all spindle-synchronized motion that's not partly/mostly along Z
[23:55:45] <skunkworks> I like the flexibility...
[23:56:05] <cradek> andypugh: seems like he could specify the pitch off by .05% or whatever it is, in his cam, if he really doesn't want to post-edit the gcode or write an appropriate post for the cam
[23:56:35] <skunkworks> I thought I remember him making his post work with the 'linuxcnc' way
[23:56:40] <cradek> last time this came up I recall that one or more commercial controls does specify pitch the way we do
[23:57:00] <cradek> so it's probably not as standard as he would have you believe
[23:57:03] <cradek> wonder if I can find that
[23:57:09] <cradek> (why do I care about this!?)
[23:58:11] <skunkworks> heh
[23:58:26] <skunkworks> I don't like winers.
[23:59:05] <cradek> to call it a show-stopper is just being silly
[23:59:40] <cradek> the control is fully capable of the necessary motion in a fully flexible way, and posts are flexible for this very reason
