May remove {"ej":""} after every command for g2core?

[xpix]

Hi,

after every manual command over the serial console in CP, the spjs send this command:

if this really necessary or can we remove this echo-command?

Here some comments from @giseburt about this topic:

thank you

This command is necessary to put TinyG back into JSON mode. So, if a user types $1 to see all motor settings then it's placed into text mode and ChiliPeppr can no longer communicate with the critical JSON features. The entire way the buffer flow works is to look for an r:{} response from TinyG. Imagine that TinyG could send back a text response instead of a JSON response. The whole buffer flow falls apart instantly. So this isn't just lightly important, this is critically important. I pointed this out back in the day that this was a problem and there was no solution on the horizon, so I had to implement this in the buffer. If the new version of the firmware solves this then for sure get rid of it in the g2core buffer, but don't touch it on the v8 because it is SUPER critical.
