Lathe & Mill

[Richard <phebos-at-btinternet.com>]

If I wanted to use EMC for both Lathe and Mill would it be
possible to :

1) Run both at once by concurrent instances of EMC ?
2) Launch EMC correctly cofigured for either Lathe or Mill by
parameter passing or script of some sort?

Actually, on the subject of Lathes, does EMC actually support
them?. I'm sure I've seen mention of it but can't see any
support for a spindle encoder or threading.

BTW, I know nothing about Linux I'm afraid other than a little
playing with it under an emulator, but I am an
engineer/programmer by trade.
