Hello, folks!

I have 2 questions about Axis GUI:

The first one is:
How do I implement the changes in axis.py script?
Currently I see only one option:
1) get source code of the desired EMC2 version;
2) change axis.py script;
3) compile the program by running ./configure and /make and /make
install commands

Is there any other way, where I could avoid getting the source code
and having to compile the application?

What I want to do is placing pyvcp on the left side of the Axis window.
In this link there are screenshots which show, how I have done it:

Note: that is only a sample pyvcp, the real one is supposed to contain
3 or 4 buttons to control THC module. And now I have been
experimenting on a standalone PC with 2.5~pre version, but I would
like to implement it in my waterjet machine machine, which is running
EMC 2.4.5 version.

The first picture shows the default behavior - placing the pyvcp on
the right side of the window. The problem is that there is a lot of
unused space created below the panel. And there is also enough unused
space on the left side for a panel with few buttons. So I would like
to use the existing free space and avoid creating even more of it.

So the second picture shows, how do my changes look like.

Third and fourth pictures show, that placement of pyvcp panel does not
change, if the window size is increased - it means that it is attached
to the group of buttons on the top left corner - "home", "touch off",
"spindle", "coolant". WIth these changes minimum window height has now
increased and it is shown in third picture.

The second question:
How do I change "Spindle", "Coolant" and "Flood" labels so that Axis
GUI shows "Water jet" instead of "Spindle" and "Abrasive" instead of
"Coolant" and "   "[empty space] instead of "Flood"?
I tried to find in the code these words in the line, which would say
something about label, but changing them did not provide any success.

Thank You in advance!
