I realised my opinion would come to bite me in the foot as I was
diagnosing the linuxcncrsh-tcp test.
I did come to realise that yes remote GUI would have a place in an
industrial setting.
I would imagine if the protocol was simple enough and with tcp a mid to
hi end microcontroller with a simple display could be put into use for
use in a hobby workshop. Could it be that it could function as an
extension of the GUI on the Linuxcnc machine, a "smart pendant" for lack
of a better way to describe it ?
My apologies if I seemed to making light of the effort gone into MK in
that area.
Cheers

Well, no. A major focus was to support multiple instances of
Machinekit working in the same
physical space, without interference. Think of workcells with part
loaders, part unloaders and
machining centers all moving through the same volume without anything
hitting other machines.
Or, multiple machines like robots that each do a specific job, like
welding and drilling holes at the
same time.
