Way back when (79,80) I ran machine with a GE Mark Century 100 control. The control was built in 1958. No tool length offets, the zero position was adjusted with thumb wheel dials and no memory only a tape reader. Block delete was useful then because there was no program changes at the machine. If the programmer would put a manreadable section at the beginning of each tool the you could position the tape in the reader to start in the middle of the program. The control box was about 6 feet square and about 5 feet tall.
