Hassan,

The following g-code will in fact cut a circle using EMC with a radius of
1.171750 at location X 1.171750 Y0.0 at a feed rate of 2.5 inches per
minute.

G02 X 1.171750 Y 0.000000 I-1.171750 J 0.000000 F 2.50

This generally works in EMC, although some versions have had problems with
it.  I had trouble with this when I was running BDI 2.10 but the BDI 2.16
release runs it just fine, IIRC.
