Isn't there actually a reverse engineered Wacom driver for Linux?<br> Couldn't this be used instead of having to ask permission from Wacom?<br> <br> <a href="http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/</a><br>
<br> I too think it would be great to have cross-platform wacom support,<br> but I think it would be even better if there was a "libwacom" C API<br> for all operating systems for which the Pd "wacom" object was a simple<br>

Hello Pd developers and programmers,<br> <br> we - me and Johannes Kreidler for now - wanted to ask if anyone would be<br> interested in programming a version of Thomas Grill's [wacom] for windows<br> (and unix, if possible). This external is used to take data from wacom<br>
tablets - so in case anyone else is interested in this please say something.<br> <br> The features/work would include:<br> <br> - be compatible with general wacom architecture - and specially with the<br> Intuos3 (which is the tablet we own)<br>
- take all parameters from the tablet connected<br> - not forgetting tilt+inclination, touch strips and keys (these aren't<br> covered by [wintablet])<br> - put the compiled binaries in a svn folder packaged with Pd Extended (see<br>
below)<br> - be willing to do some maintenance now and then, specially until things<br> get stable (after that, I guess the work would be kind of finished)<br> <br> According to T Grill, the developer(s) that work on this must register<br>
with Wacom as developer(s), so that they have access to the wacon API.<br> Also, the source code cannot be given away, so they must sign a<br> non-disclosure contract (from what Thomas said, not as complicated as it<br> sounds). I couldn't find exact information about this, but at<br>
<a href="http://www.wacomeng.com/devsupport/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.wacomeng.com/devsupport/index.html</a> might be something more<br> clear.<br> <br> It would be perfect if someone would be interested in porting the code<br>
just because. In case that doesn't happen, we - me, Johannes Kreidler and<br> whoever wants to join in - would be interested in giving a small payment<br> for the work. We're poor people (just like you), so we can't really pay<br>
what a professional programmer should get for the work. In that case, just<br> get in discussion with us, and we'll see what can be done.<br> <br> Again, if this interests someone else - either as developper or<br> contributor - please forward this mail away.<br>
