How to pass strings from kflop to mach3?

[flegrand80]

Anyone knows if there's a way to pass a string of text from a kflop custom C program to mach3?
My goal is to "print" text into a custom mach3 screen set?

Thanks,

Hi François,

No we don't have a mechanism for that. The problem is I'm not aware of a means of sending/receiving a string between Mach3 Basic and our Plugin.

Would it be possible to upload an numeric code and convert it to a string in Mach3.

There is a mechanism to write text to a PC Disk File so that might be a workaround.

Thanks, I think both workarounds would work.
