Not an any official capacity.  I learned quite a bit about tkemc by writing
my own menu driven gui.   I have customized the tk editor (genedit.tcl) by
adding line numbering, editing while emc is running, and find and replace.

I'll look at it and see what I can find.  I'm not real sure that I
understand the difference between the two in EMC.  How can you get
noticable differences between actual and commanded?  Does xemc do it the
way you think it should?
