Structured Text

Any plans to add Structured Text as a programming option for Do-More

Maybe even IEC 61131-3 compliance.

Thanks

There is a good chance that we will do something similar to ST. I think that before we would pursue a full 61131 implementation, we would look into licensing one.

I think even a subroutine scripting box would be nice, but I guess any implementation would be a ton of work implementing an editor and some debugging tools.

Editing and debugging are by far the biggest challenges. The engine is either already done or simple to add.

The structured text or similar functionality would be a very welcome addition.
