EMC Lathe mode.

Hi All:

I seem to be hearing from a few people lately who would like to see lathe capability added to my software. Since it is based very much on the EMC code kernel, I thought I'd ask the EMC guru's what would be required to add lathe capability.
I have never used a lathe CNC before, what is necessary? what would be nice? Would C-Code just be a translation of the input coordinate system, or is it necessary to use different G-Code translations? Can Mill software not be used on a lathe or is it a matter of apples and oranges? Is EMC not usable on a lathe?

Any input would be appreciated,
Art
