Hi all,

I'm giving some serious thought to adding a rotary table to my minimill, 
which would be parallel to the existing x axis. So I guess that would be 
  the A axis.  I have a couple of questions that I didn't quickly (!) 
find answers to in the wiki etc. so here goes:

1. Does the AXIS interface have the ability to display such an axis?

2. Could someone point me toward a reference to g-code programming for a 
rotary axis?  I suppose that I'd supply angular rather than linear 
values, like G0 A90 instead of G0 x3.14, but I'd like a little bit more 
to go on before I hack this thing together!

thanks,
Pat

ps - ray, I'm going to try and use your description of adding the 
appropriate hal signals, etc. and cross my fingers....
