    And I looked at using linuxcnc last year and bought a teensy4.1 and this board instead so I can use grblHAL. I don't think I even have any hardware left that has parallel ports on it to easily interconnect for linuxcnc, and I don't want to buy hardware 'emulate' it either. I moved on to wifi and USB for everything about 9 years ago, and that feels like moving backwards.

    And it looks like pendant support was 'enabled' last year in grblHAL, but I don't see the "I'm with stupid guide" that I would need to connect it.
