 I would like to display the axes positions in larger numbers, and

 the AXIS display, but it doesn't change with Touch-Off. Can anyone give
 my a head-start on how to make my pyVCP position match AXIS' position
 display?

 My lathe_postgui.hal has:

 net Xpos = pyvcp.Xposition

 I suppose Xpos is not the proper signal? Or I need to process it with
 Touch-Off some how?

AXIS already has an inch/mm display toggle.

To enlarge the font use something like
http://cvs.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/emc2/src/emc/usr_intf/axis/etc/axis_big_dro?rev=1.1
in your X resources.  We've talked about some ideas for a better way
to do this (like on a menu) but nobody has done it yet.
