It is a bit crude but it works (;-) Mach4 sent me a message today that Machine#549's program was complete.

so like you say, post the code to do it.
Or did you just convert the VB to Lua... if so post your conversion.

HIYA Scott, LUA at present does not have any SMTP functional language in it . It has to rely on a SOCKET.smtp (plugin to Lua) WHICH Mach4 does not have yet. SO I used the os.execute to hop out to a VBS script that I had for Mach3. With a few mods it will run in VBS.
IF Brain decides to include the Socket.smtp in his build of Mach4/Lua THEN we can do it right and have a full bodied Email function.
I will gladly send you a copy of the VBS script. But it is not something I would like to post here. I would have to strip out the security part of it THEN it would be harder to understand.
I also have a version of code to use a MODEM to send a text message to your phone for those that do not have the MACH4PC networked to the net.
I am just testing things as I remember we had for MACh3. HUM?? IF Brian would put the Gcode side of MAch4 into Mach3 I dought I would ever upgrade. While Mach4 is very fast and powerfull it is ALSO extremely complicated script wise as compared to Mach3.
But Like I have said IF the GUI is done correctly there is LITTLE to NO need to go scripting in Mach4. It should already be done for you.

Mach3 WAS extremely handy in a lot of ways.

Scott, check your email(;-) The code is ALSO in the Mach Tool Box where no one ever visits.
We REALLY DO need a Mach4 version of the MachTool Box. Things get lost posting stuff every where else.
