Mr. Machinist WHATSNEW.TXT file. ( 10/25/95 ) =============================================== MRM200A A formula function in the "Options" menu has now been implemented. You can virtually write every long handed formula to a file called FORMULA.TXT. This is a great feature for the user who wants to know how to do the calculations manually. The sequencing and unsequencing functions have to do with CNC G-Code files. These files are used by metal cutting machines to command the axises to a particular position. Added a feature to the sequence function where you can specify an '@' character in a line by itself and an '!' character in a line by itself. These characters are only noticed in the sequence function and here is what they do: When the sequence function sees a '@' character it causes all of the lines after that NOT to be sequenced or resequenced UNTIL it sees a '!' character in a line by itself. This way you can leave a certain portion of G-Code alone and just sequence the rest. Changed the way the program saves and deletes files that it creates. If you start the program with no parameters, 'mrm', then any files that are created by the program will not be deleted upon termination. Then when you start another session, these same files will be appended to...that is added to. Files that Mr. Machinist can create are: MRMSOLVE.TXT - Answer File MRMBOLT .TXT - Bolt Circle Answers MRMCIRCD.TXT - Circle Divived Answers MRMDRILL.TXT - Drill Speed/Feed File FORMULA .TXT - Formula File There has been a new function added to the 'Options' menu called 'Check Files'. This function will give you the chance to delete any of the above files if they are present. Keep watch for upgrades because they can come quickly!
