RE: Modifying EMC interface for lathe (x and z) display

["John Guenther" <j.guenther-at-verizon.net>]

It is just a matter of changing the .ini file and you are there.  I don't
remember the exact items to change but I think it is pretty self explanatory
when you start looking at the .ini file.  Change the number of axis to 2 and
delete the extra sections for the unwanted axis.
