Perry Hung:

• README: update readme to reflect lecroy support

  Add the LeCroy WavePro ZI-a to the list of tested devices.

• plugins: lecroy: poll status register until SCDP bit is set

  To avoid racing the device (transferring a file before it's available),
  poll the SCDP bit in the status register until the hardcopy has
  completed.

• plugins: lecroy make command format consistent

  Use shortened and capitalized forms across all commands for consistency.

• plugins: lecroy: error check and validate inputs

  Fix some memory safety issues. Add some rudimentary checks and validate
  untrusted input from the device.

• plugins: implement screenshot for LeCroy WavePRO oscilloscopes

  This changeset adds screenshot support for LeCroy oscilloscopes that
  implement the MAUI LXI interface.

  In principle this should work with other LeCroy telescopes, but I have
  only tested it with the WavePro 7 Zi-A.

Adrian Scripca:

• Added ability to copy grabbed screenshot to clipboard

Eddie:

• adds R&S CMW270 to README

werwaswarum:

  As far as I read the manual screenshoots are only saved to the device or send to a printer.

Walter Stanish:

Changes since lxi-tools v2.0:

• Remove scpi run commands from file feature

  Retiring this feature as one should use the Lua script feature instead.

  (REQ/RSP). Add preference settings accordingly.

  Prefixing with IP is default.

• Add lua clock API

  Add lua clock API for measuring elapsed time:

  • c = clock_new() - Returns new clock
  • time = clock_read(c) - Returns elapsed time in seconds since first read call
  • clock_reset(c) - Resets clock time
  • clock_free(c) - Releases clock handle

  First time clock_read() is called on a new clock it will return a time
  of 0 seconds and the clock will start running.

  This clock API is useful for time stamping data as it is retrieved from
  an instrument.

  Travis is no longer free for open source projects!

  CircleCI seems to be the new king for quick open source CI.
