Marlin M119 End Stop switch status change
Currently switch status is reported as either TRIGGERED or Open
I changed my Marlin End stop “Open” message from ‘Open” to “ - - - “ as I think “Open” is a bit confusing as if using a switch it may in fact be closed.
Using “ Un-triggered” is more correct but I found using ‘- - - “just looked better.
Better to have switches closed when away from home as less chance to get electrical noise that may cause a false home detect.

About 9 months ago, the Triggered and Open messages were changed to be more clear. The terminology used is clumsy for another reason. The switches can be configured to be active wither with a closed or open state. They had to be changed back. The problem is it broke all the client programs that were looking for specific text. Getting these messages changed to something more clear is going to be a slow process.
