    Well, I finally am getting around to compiling the source from scratch to see about tweaking some stuff. I ran the make and all looks good except the object dump of the following line — Latest version from the main grbl repository edge branch–:

    avr-objdump -h main.elf | grep .bss | ruby -e ‘puts “nn— Requires %s bytes of SRAM” % STDIN.read.match(/0[0-9a-f]+s/)[0].to_i(16)’

    Where it says:

    -e:1: syntax error, unexpected tSTRING_BEG, expecting $end
    …h(/0[0-9a-f]+s/)[0].to_i(16)”es %sƒ??O?î
    ^
    make: *** [grbl.hex] Error 1

    I realize that this is just an informational and is probably just a funky problem with needing an additional escape char or such because of platform (Win).

    The other question is maybe silly but just unsure:

    After flashing with the binaries from this toolchain, does it change the normal arduino bootloader? Will I need to re-flash it with the arduino bootloader before I can reuse the controller with the regular arduino tool suite?

    Can’t answer your question about the toolchain, but no, you can always re-load the Arduino code from the Arduino menu (somewhere in the upper right part of the screen, IIRC).

    Cool, thanks.

    I have another Arduino that I was playing with to compile/install the grbl but I was thinking about taking a stab at porting to the standard Arduino software. Just taking a bit to pick out what Simen is doing in parts of it.

    Biggest problem has been dealing with the EasySteppers I had to play with since the grblShield is already dedicated elsewhere.

    Just taking a break from the mechanicals.

    Perhaps buying another grblshield? (hint hint) 🙂

    Well, you can’t have too many. 🙂
