Tested with dummy instrument that simply prints the compiled SCPI string and whether it is querying or writing.
Some of the instruments that I am working with have the option to or require arguments after the question mark when querying a value. For example, modules used with a Keysight DAQ970 can have specific channels queried. For example,
MEAS:VOLT:DC? 10,0.001,(@101, 102, 103)
measure the DC voltage w/ 10V range, 1mV resolution, on channels 01, 02, and 03 of module 1.As mentioned in the commit message, I've only tested this with a "fake" VISA instrument so far:
If you'd prefer tests with an actual VISA instrument, let me know. Also, if you have particular formatting preferences let me know what they are.
