The various Gecko drives work well, but the OP was looking for a
complete single axis control with GPI/GPO, not a standalone drive that

Well, I was. But it's looking like what I wanted really doesn't exist
anymore at the price point I want. The Sherline setup will do it, but I
can buy a turn key rig for $25.

It's looking like a laptop, MaxNC Step/dir software, and a simple low
cost stepper driver. Geckos are very nice, but overkill. I don't need
much power or speed.
