๐ŸŽ‰ New Klipper Module: Rapid Macro Development Made Easy! ๐ŸŽ‰

Hey everyone!

Iโ€™ve been tinkering again, and yesterday I developed a small yet powerful Klipper module that, combined with my existing RELOAD_GCODE_MACROS function, makes Rapid Macro Development a breeze! ๐Ÿš€

How does it work?
Simply add the [auto_reload] section to your Klipper configuration to load the module. Once set up, it automatically watches for changes in your printer.cfg file. The moment you save your changes, it triggers RELOAD_GCODE_MACROS to reload the configuration on the fly.

This means no more manually restarting Klipper or reloading macrosโ€”just tweak, save, and see your updates in action immediately. ๐Ÿ”„

I get that this might be a niche feature for most, but for those 2-3 macro tinkerers out there (you know who you are ๐Ÿ˜‰), this could be a total game-changer. Itโ€™s already saving me so much time in my workflow, and I thought, why not share it with the community?

If youโ€™re into macro development or just curious to try it out, Iโ€™d love to hear your feedback! Let me know how it works for you or what features youโ€™d like to see next.

That's a great idea! I'll need to check if it's feasible, as the configuration management in Klipper can be a bit complex.

This is a great idea! I would suggest adding posibility to instance several times for it to watch other files too.
