Agreed. Saying that - here we go with *my* scan through the documents and how *I* missed NGCGUI. http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/2.5/html/common/user_intro.html 3 - graphical interfaces shows: Axis Mini TKLinuxCNC Keystick XEmc (text only 3-word description) halui (text only description) linuxcncrsh (text only description) but then, if you look at the "other" parts of the documentation, we see: (ref: http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/2.5/html/) Axis Touchy (not referenced in the user intro) NGCGUI (not referenced in the user intro) TkEMC (presumably this is the TKLinuxCNC, old name) MiniGUI KeystickGUI. Missing in action (from the first section above) *appear* to be XEmc; halui is a man-page dump, and linuxcncrsh appears to be MIA also. I'm really keen to look further into NGCGUI; I just missed it when going through the graphical interfaces section - there are a couple of hidden gems in there waiting to be discovered. (yes, I know - documentation is written by all of us, but I'm still in the discovery mode) ----------------------------------------------------------- John A.
