OK, so I can have fewer coordinates listed than the number of coords 
declared?  I didn't expect you could do that.
I will try it.

I've been hacking away on the standard univpwm config file set.  I tried 
to chop it down to one axis, then two, then I tried to flip the 
connections so that a 4-axis (XYZA) setup would have the A axis coming 
out on the first port of the UPC board.  I could get the encoder 
feedback to come out on the right axis, but couldn't seem to redirect 
the output.  I tried it twice, once redirecting it before the PID 
section, and then after the PID section.
Maybe best to not try something like that when you are tired.

Really, I've accomplished nothing.  So, if you want to just try with the 
files in .../configs/univpwm, that would be a good place to start, as 
that actually works.  (I think it has TkEMC as the display, but you can 
change that to Axis.)  You won't be able to actually run it there, as 
the ppmc driver will croak without the right hardware.

Thanks,

Jon
