287.0. "Wish: Mode Page for Robot Geometry." by SSDEVO::ROLLOW (Dr. File System's Home for Wayward Inodes.) Thu Feb 06 1997 23:22

	Back in note #234, a discussion of the GUI's handling
	of multi-tower TL82x configurations turned into a
	discussion of trying to figure out the robot geometry
	and a possible vendor specific mode page for that
	information.  Not much came of it, but the geometry
	discussion isn't really an open problem.  It is more
	like a wish list item.

	So, I'm going to move the related notes from that topic
	here.  The original note will discuss the specific problem
	with the GUI on multi-tower configurations.

    After the hard experienced testing MUSL, SEP and ATL has looked into
    the base code and decided that this base code is not easily to add
    complex changes - real messy!!! Additinal MODE PAGE is considered a
    complex change. We can only support bug fixes and minor changes such as
    the list in my TL89x status memo.
    
    Next generation (if we ever go to have one), we'll look into doing that.
