The file should be /usr/local/emc/something.ini

The something would be visible if you right click on the on-screen icon
and click properties. I think there were 4 different ini files on the
Sherline
system for different size machines and inch/mm coordinates.

The parameters you want to change are in the [AXIS_n] sections,
INPUT_SCALE and OUTPUT_SCALE.

That software is AWFULLY old, probably 2002-3. There has been a LOT of
advance in EMC2 since then.
