That means the contr *Changelog for v0.8 from v0.7:* - *ALPHA STATUS*: Major structural overhaul to allow for multi-tasking events and new feature sets - - New run-time command control: Feed hold (pause), Cycle start (resume), Reset (abort), Status report (TBD) + - New run-time command control: Feed hold (pause), Cycle start (resume), Reset (abort), Status reporting - Controlled feed hold with deceleration to ensure no skipped steps and loss of location. - After feed hold, cycle accelerations are re-planned and may be resumed. - - System reset re-initializes grbl without resetting the Arduino. - - Updated dwell function. + - Work(G92) and machine coordinate system support. + - System reset re-initializes grbl without resetting the Arduino and retains machine/home position. - Restructured planner and stepper modules to become independent and ready for future features. - - Planned features: Jog mode, status reporting, backlash compensation, improved flow control, planner optimizations - - Reduce serial read buffer to 127 characters and increased write buffer to 31 characters (-1 ring buffer). - - Increased planner buffer size to 20 blocks. + - Planned features: Jog mode, status reporting, runtime settings such as toggling block delete. + - Reduce serial read buffer to 128 characters and increased write buffer to 64 characters. - Misc bug fixes and removed deprecated acceleration enabled code. -*Changelog for v0.7 from v0.6:* - - Significantly improved and optimized planner re-factoring. - - New robust cornering algorithm, enabling smoother and faster motions. - - Arc acceleration planning enabled by efficient vector transformation implementation. - - Stepper subsystem re-factoring to help remove some motion issues from pre-v0.7 builds. - - Increased dwell times. - - G92 Coordinate offset support. - - (Beta) Limit switch and homing cycle support. - - Many other bug fixes and efficiency improvements. - *Important note for Atmega 168 users:* Going forward, support for Atmega 168 will be dropped due to its limited memory and speed. However, legacy Grbl v0.51 "in the branch called 'v0_51' is still available for use. _The project was initially inspired by the Arduino GCode Interpreter by Mike Ellery_
