Well with further testing. currently the display wont change to lathe view at
run time,
only the DRO display will.
so I will change it to an INI switch, which is reasonable and if there is real
interest
in the future, it could be looked at then.
personally I'm more interested in getting it to optionally display an opposite
handed
lathe...
