I am new to EMC. I am the software guy responsible for automating
operation of a simple mechanical device. The folks who created it, set
it up with a stepper motor connected to the parallel port of a Linux box
running EMC. There are two commands implemented via buttons in Axis:
"Open" and "Close". These boil down to:

    [HALUI]
    MDI_COMMAND = G0 X0
    MDI_COMMAND = G0 X63.85

I need to be able to execute these commands under program control (not
with a mouse click). Is there a straightforward way to issue these
commands via, say, emcrsh (or is it linuxcncrsh?) or via a command line,
perhaps using halcmd? The overall control for this system is on a
separate computer, so these commands need to be issued via TCP/IP or ssh.
