Thanks again. I will look into it. Anybody ever use 2 joysticks? I ran a Zeiss cmm for 15 years and am very comfortable
driving a machine around with them. Never thought about it before.

The driver (xhc-hb04.cc) uses nomenclature as xyza because that
is how the device's physical controls are labeled. That does not prevent
a user from assigning the pins with xyza names otherwise.

I thought that that part would be relatively easy, but I was much less
sure about whether it could be configured to jog two axes at the same
time. The counts to axes jogging _looked_to be in the driver not HAL.

Thanks again. I will probably try something like that after all the machine is up and running. Got to keep the things that can go
wrong to a minimum. Got to do a bunch of cleaning up of the wiring and build some kind of roll around box to hold the computer, monitor, keyboard and little fiddly pieces in one neat place.
