Oh and just to add to the confusion, the doc seems to match motion.c found at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/master/src/emc/motion/motion.c
for example from motion.c:
if ((retval = hal_pin_float_newf(HAL_OUT, &(addr->spindle_speed_out_abs),
mot_comp_id, "spindle.%d.speed-out-abs", num)) != 0) return retval;
Where are the documents and motion.c that uses the declaration below?
motion.spindle-speed-out-abs
Thanks
