Hello, We got it finally out. A much improved Orocos version with a great deal of attention for Motion and Machine Control. The available Control Kernel Components are now more visible in the Doxygen documentation. Most demos are now interactive and allow you to give commands to a running control kernel. We got it fairly well working with RTAI 3.0r4 and Linux 2.4.25. As always : $ wget http://www.orocos.org/orocos-install.tcl $ tclsh orocos-install.tcl The release notes follow.
