I have my lathe and mill set up with ssh and also have wake-on-lan
configured, so I can boot the machines from the Mac in the living
room.

I can then ssh -Y to put the LinuxCNC gui on the Mac monitor, and (in
theory) run the machines.

A much more typical use is to wake-on-lan the machines so they are
booted when I get to the workshop, set up and start the job, then
close the workshop and turn the lights out, and go back to the Mac and

ssh -Y andypugh@mill.local
halcmd -kf
loadusr -s pin motion.program-line

Which pops up a little window on the Mac screen which shows me the
progress of the job, and which (usefully) shows "0" when paused
waiting for a tool change or manual unclamp of the rotary.
