Why???

Expression function '#OnInit' removed!

Expression function '#Loop' removed!

Expression function '#OnShutdown' removed!

Cmd not found: 'Jog_Speed.Set'

And why is none of my Expr.txt working anymore??????


Why do you break all my scripts ????????????

And where to hell are the explanations of the new functions???
Should I guess how the following features are working??
Thats all useless if the manual is 2 Years old and in G-Code i see "no description" everywhere.

OK, the messages "Expression function '#OnInit' removed!" does not mean they don't exist. It means they are not executed because of errors in syntax of scripts.
So "removed" is not the best choice for the text. Maybe "will not be executed due to errors" or "will be ignored due to errors" or something like that. So there will be no misunderstanding of that message.


On the other side, i like the new posibility for multi line expressions. Makes live easier if they are large. But I recommend some kind of legacy support to not break everything at once.
One option could be to detect if there are any ; in the script at all. So no ; means old single line script...

For now that's too late, but maybe something for future changes. It is very important that at least, there is a special information in version history if there are breaking changes.
