  Description     : A free and powerful machine controller

EMC (the Enhanced Machine Control) is a software system for computer control of 
machine tools such as milling machines and lathes.

EMC provides:
  * a graphical user interface (actually several interfaces to chose from)
  * an interpreter for "G-code" (the RS-274 machine tool programming language)
  * a realtime motion planning system with look-ahead
  * operation of low-level machine electronics such as sensors and motor drives
  * an easy to use "breadboard" layer for quickly creating a unique 
configuration for your machine
  * a software PLC programmable with ladder diagrams

It does not provide drawing (CAD - Computer Aided Design) or G-code generation 
from the drawing (CAM - Computer Automated Manufacturing) functions.
