This is the optimal code for a self-contained formatter, although the
original code is crafty in being smaller and simpler, and can be
evaluated as using the original output as a scratch pad for state,
making the final formatter more straightforward. While this code is
longer, all code-paths are minimal.
Moved PSTR() macro to correct place which was causing the " initializer fails to determine size of '__c' " when attempting to compile with BABYSTEPPING enabled.
Changes to support displaying the real-time filament width and the
volume factor on a 20x4 LCD. The data is displayed on the 4th line.
First the status message is displayed for 5 seconds, and then the
filament data is displayed. The status message can be seen by
re-selecting the info screen in the menu.
FW retraction is extended onto swap retraction invoked by 'G10 S1'.
Bookkeeping of the retract state of all extruders allows for having one
extruder fw standard retracted while another extruder is swap retracted.
An LCD menu item for the swap retract and recover length was added.
This is _not_ automatically the cronological, since deleting a file will free
the filesystem descriptor for it, which then will be used by the next file copied on it.
Since this makes the auto0.g file very inaccessible, I put the option back, to have it in the prepare menu.
this should satisfy https://github.com/ErikZalm/Marlin/pull/373
as a reminder, auto0.g will be executed every time after a boot with sd card present and file present.
thereafter, if there is a file auto1.g this will be done. Thats IMHO the best place to put settings, and prepare heating.
I also execute again after each (now again via the prepare menu) before starting a new print/ after a failed one.
It for me 100% replaces any start.gcode form the slicers.
also, removed some trouble for compilation with corexy.
I think that babystepping is only possible in z for a delta tower.
not sure if it would be usefull to step individual motors on a delta, i don't own one
It is a realtime control over the head position via the LCD menu system that works _while_ printing.
Using it, one can e.g. tune the z-position in realtime, while printing the first layer.
Also, lost steps can be manually added/removed, but thats not the prime feature.
Stuff is placed into the Tune->Babystep *
It is not possible to have realtime control via gcode sending due to the buffering, so I did not include a gcode yet. However, it could be added, but it movements will not be realtime then.
Historically, a very similar thing was implemented for the "Kaamermaker" project, while Joris was babysitting his offspring, hence the name.
say goodby to fuddling around with the z-axis.
Add new 'callback' edit-menu types that call a function after the edit is done. Use this to display and edit Ki and Kd correctly (removing the scaling first and reapplying it after). Also use it to reset maximum stepwise acceleration rates, after updating mm/s^2 rates via menus. (Previously, changes did nothing to affect planner unless saved back to EEPROM, and the machine reset).
Add calls to updatePID() so that PID loop uses updated values whether set by gcode (it already did this), or by restoring defaults, or loading from EEPROM (it didn't do those last two). Similarly, update the maximum step/s^2 accel rates when the mm/s^2 values are changed - whether by menu edits, restore defaults, or EEPROM read.
Refactor the acceleration rate update logic, and the PID scaling logic, into new functions that can be called from wherever, including the callbacks.
Add menu items to allow the z jerk and e jerk to be viewed/edited in the Control->Motion menu, as per xy jerk.

A new variable was introduced to allow fan animation on the GLCD.
Add additional float to string conversion routine without sign
character. This is used for the coordinates visualisation on the GLCD.
From the prepare menu, accessible when is not printing, you have the
possibility to turn off the PSU when is on et vice versa.
From the host, you can turn off or turn on the PSU then the menu is
updated accordingly.
From the LCD message, the printer status is reported ready or off
respectively when the PSU is on or off.
[default off for now]
syntax: M600 X[pos] Y[pos] Z[relative lift] E[initial retract] L[later retract distance for removal]
if enabled, after a M600, the printer will retract by E, lift by Z, move to XY, retract even more filament.
Oh, and it will display "remove filament" and beep like crazy.
You are then supposed to insert a new filament (other color, e.g.) and click the display to continue.
After having the nozzle cleaned manually, aided by the disabled e-steppers.
After clicking, the printer will then go back the whole shebang, and continue printing with a fancy new color.
