Sorry, I didn't actually answer your questions, did I?
The XML file goes in the same directory as the HAL and INI files.
See section 1.4 here for how to get that panel to display:
www.linuxcnc.org/docs/2.2/html/hal_pyvcp...#sec:pyvcp-with-axis
You will need to tweak the HAL code to suit your signal names. If you start emc2 from the command-line (just type emc ) then you will get a message about what is wrong when it can't find a pin or signal name. Just keep at it until it stops complaining

Do you know the planned release date for a live image of 2.5? If it is soon, I might wait, but I would really like to get some form of conversational programming running, as writing numerous turning or facing routines soon gets old.
I spent about three hours yesterday trying to work out what I needed to do to get NGCGUI or your pyVCP panel installed. It was time well invested, as I have not done much in Linux or EMC before. I didn't get to a result though.
I'd appreciate having your gladeVCP interface widget, if you'd help me with the setup steps.

I will try to pull the current config off of the lathe tonight, and update the web page.
However, when you watch Dewey and NGCGUI in action, that does look like a better solution.

Thanks Andy. It'll be Friday before I can install this, but look forward to learning how to use it over the weekend.

The spindle speed display is running correctly now, but commanding g33 Z-20 K1 (metric lathe) returns an error that the spindle is not running even though it is. I commanded S500 before the G33 command.
Any ideas what is wrong?

Is there any other messages? That message looks like a warning not an error. Actually, googling the message shows it is only a warning. It has to do with a .png image being loaded. Are you customising GWiz?
