Default Big triumph, HOME SWITCHES WORK AND MACHINE HOMES

Finally common sense triumphed over laziness.

I found out all the home switch wiring. The home switches had a common
65 and signals 94, 95, 96 for X, Y and Z.

Wired and typed various **** into INI files, and after a lot of
confusion, all axes now home to limit switches and to index pulse.

They also do it relatively quickly. (approaching home slowly
does not work, as the switch bounces and confuses EMC).

The limit switches are now strictly for safety purposes.

When the machine traveled to the Y limit switch, I had a chance to
look at the fish scale pattern on the knee, and wow, the fish scale
looks like new!

Today was an unusually good day in other respects (visited Google
office in Chicago and got some good suggestions). This is really
rare. My average day is usually between medium and "meduim ****ty".

I have to figure out the coordinate system business tomorrow. I am
comlpetely confused.
