Rant mode on They have over the last two "upgrades" from wheezy to jessie and on to stretch, totally disabled any attempts to forward x to another machine, I suppose based on someones idea of security and my questions about fixing that pain in the arse, so it works once again, have been totally ignored. They HAVE been asked, but never acknowledged with the courtesy of even a reply with a link to a tut. We build (some buy) computers for us to use, and now if I want to edit gcode on another machine from a comfortable office chair, I am restricted to nano. Or going to that machine and standing at its operating position just to be able to use a decent editor. That is not fun when one is 2 weeks short of his 84th, and have 2 crushed disc's in my lower back limiting me to not more than an hour/day. Its very hard to concentrate on the code when your back is screaming at you. But someone with the power to "make it so" hides behind the word security, never deigning to explain it where the user public gets to read it. There is something drastically wrong with that picture when we don't get a choice, or a say in it. /rant -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
