11    *moxy* (an EPICS GUI tool) provides support for an X,Y positioner
12    (motor) pair by allowing users to define a table of known positions
13    and providing a one-button click to drive a chosen X,Y pair to a specific
14    table setting.  Also can record current position into a setting.
15
16    Several sets of X,Y positioners can be configured.  (Each set is
17    separate.)  In fact, the positioners do not have to be motors,
18    but can be any type of EPICS PV that will accept a numeric value.

21    moxy is based on wxPython and relies on CaChannel to communicate
22    with EPICS.
23   
24    In the Graphical User Interface (GUI), tooltips are provided for
25    most items.  Moving and pausing the mouse over a widget (GUI
26    component such as a button or a label) will cause a terse description
27    of that widget to be displayed. Moving the mouse away will cause that
28    tooltip to disappear.
