Hi Dennis,
I've been playing with that yesterday.
I think the library needs to be changed in a couple of places. As you pointed
out, it doesn't really know if the GPIO pin was already exported until it tries
to do it and then flags that it's exported in the flags variable.
The problem is if t
I've only used CAN1 since the I2C for Cape ID isn't something I wanted to lose.
The Beagle that was running with the CAN cape had its SD card die so I lost the
configuration information. But this site here does a pretty good job of
explaining what is needed.

u have hardware generating 6 pairs of step/dir as high as 500kHz. The
amount of time the 8th pair is ON and OFF is dependent on the PWM frequency and
