Not for touch screen lathe users !

It also has it's quirks - two for starters that really annoy, first is
nasty IMO - Axis, click on spindle start, spindle races off at some
arbitrary speed. Need to press + twice before you can control speed.

Other is an annoyance. Running multiple iterations of the same job,
screen should CTRL K after M30 so you can see at a glance, and from a
distance, where it's up to on subsequent runs on the backplot screen
without having to manually type it before pressing "Start".
