Hi all,

Digging into the linuxcncrsh code uncovered quite a few interesting things (apart from the off-by-one errors and other problems). A thing I cannot understand is the letters used for the axes.

[BTW, I know, there is a difference between a joint and an axis. I am specifically referring to an axis here]

linuxcncrsh parses axes with the following name/IDs:
X = 0
Y = 1
Z = 2
A = 3
B = 4
C = 5

Then is also recognizes:
R = 3
P = 4
W = 5

However, I was under the impression that G-code and LCNC used a 9-axis system XYZ, ABC and UVW. So, you cannot use linuxcncrsh on a 9-axis machine and the letters are a bit off from what you'd expect.

How should this be fixed?
