Filament sensor as a physical pause button?

[theKM]

In the 3d printer, filament sensor will pause the printer... but the sensor has to be associated with an extruder... so I'm curious if this can be used without using an extruder motor?? ...I reckon that a physical pause/resume button would be handy

I did some searching, haven't found anything, might mess with it on the machine this weekend.

You just need to hook up a button to an input pin and configure a trigger
