M7/M9/M10/M11 Implementation (Coolant and Vacuum) [CNC]

[webdes03]

It'd be fantastic to see M7/9 for Coolant and M10/11 for Vacuum implemented, even if they simply executed a macro, simply so that the native output from a post processor could control vacuum and coolant.

@N131MG you can create a macro called M7.g or M9.g(etc) in the /sys/ directory and that should be run when that gcode is sent.

From here: https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/blob/dev/WHATS_NEW.md

If you try to use a G- or M-code that the firmware doesn't recognise, it will try to run a macro file of that name. For example, command M650 tries to run /sys/M650.g.

We should certainly document that feature better.

@T3P3Tony Whaaaaaat! I guess we can close this request then

@N131MG please try it and confirm it works as you expected.

@N131MG p.s. updated my first reply as I realise it M7.g or M9.g and not M79.g!

@T3P3Tony Works exactly as you described, thanks!
