OK, with that encouragement that it could be done without more soldering,
I've finally worked it out. It seems illogical, but there is a method behind
the apparent madness.
If the Y Z controllers are switched in the config screen, then the lines
from which they take values in the ini file are also switched, despite the
"Y axis" "Z axis" comments in the file.
Simple, really, wasn't it?
Thanks - I'm good to go.
