starting with the letter(s) offered as argument. It's a way to narrow
the list down. If no selection letters are offered it will list on
screen the entire list of system parameters.
It is useful if we don't remember correctly the name of the system
parameter or if we want to look for a certain system parameter as the
list is big and it grows.
- I had to play with module imports as they created a lot of error in
the tests although in reality the program worked OK.
- I've fixed some mistakes in TcL commands (they were testing isinstance
against the like of Geometry instead of FlatCAMGeometry)
- I've had to add some fixes in ObjectCollections.py (error on
create_index() method but Marco already fixed this in the checkbox
in project tab pull request and knew about this.
- Although at some point the tests run fine, I've made some checkings
on my own over the Tcl commands and discovered errors which I fixed as
mentioned above.
- conclusion is that tests are just a must and do not cover everything
(like saving projects which at some point by juggling with imports I
braked and tests were 100% OK)
the project is created with plot=False then it will not be checked in
Project tab
- improved the panelize command by toggling OFF the plot for the
temporary objects. There is no need to plot the temporary objects, only
the panel is of interest
- add a few aliases for the Panelize command ('pan' and 'panel')
- in camlib.py, CNCJob class -> generate_from_excellon_by_tool() was
failing in the line to sort the tools due of been unable to compare
between dict's. I replaced that section.
command imort_svg was using self instead self.app wrong object

add ability for breakpoints in other threads and only if available
add X11 safe flag, not sure what happen on windows
implement TclCommand.TclCommandSignaled as proof of concept (not usefull)
bypass using threads within obj.generatecncjob(use_thread = False, **args)
reimplement some more shell commands to OOP style
