Here is a good place to start http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html//gui_axis.html#r1_11_5 then here http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html//config_ini_config.html#r1_2_3 John Hello John Thank you, I have downloaded quite a few manuals, - even The Integrators Manual. (A more advanced document .......) gee whiz I don't really need a more advanced document I need a more basic simple document written for idiots like me. When it comes to computers "I'm an idiot". So I need simple step by step, and one step at a time instructions, preferably in English using little words. (come on laugh it's meant to be funny). Can someone see if I'm on the right track. The following is where I'm at: Opened 'gedit' Opened emc2 Opened configs Opened smill.ini (I named my mill smill -Sherline mill) (so far so good) Now I have found [DISPLAY] Under [DISPLAY] there is no 'EDIT = ' in there so I assume I have to type in 'EDIT = gedit' (without the quotes) Question 1) Is the above correct? Question 2) where do I type it in? - at the top of the list - bottom of the list, or doesn't it matter. Thanks to everyone for you're patience.
