The host software obviously expects ok and the coordinates to be in the same line and the coordinates separated with spaces.
to work with standard host software
According to http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#Replies_from_the_RepRap_machine_to_the_host_computer replies have to start with one of 'ok', 'rs', '!!', '//'. Actually the current RepRap standard software fails communicating with Sprinter, because it sends 'T0' in the beginning to select a Extruder.
use spaces as indentation consistently

Any comments / progress on this? What host software(s) are you using? |

I'm currently using Sprinter together with the standard reprap host software at [1](version 20111115). There are several modifications required to make this host software communicate with Sprinter.
One problem is, that the host software gets confused with line numbering if several lines are returned as reply (like in the 'unknown command' or temperature reporting case of M109).
According to http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code#Replies_from_the_RepRap_machine_to_the_host_computer
there should be only replies starting with one of 'ok', 'rs', '!!', '//'. So I modified replies not starting with ok to be comments starting with '//' and modified the M114 reply to be consistent with the host software and with the format reported by M105.
Please test those modifications with your host software and merge them into master, if appropriate.
