GUI

The KwikPeg^TM Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides the software interface required to add graphics to your embedded products. KwikPeg is especially suited for hand-held devices with their small LCD displays. As you would expect, KwikPeg is ready for use in systems which incorporate any of KADAK's RTOS or network components.

The KwikPeg GUI is available for many different target processors. For each processor family, KADAK supports software development toolsets from one or more of the industry's best known tool vendors. Each KwikPeg implementation is exercised by KADAK on hardware platforms which can support a graphical user interface and for which AMX board support is available. And our ongoing commitment to GUI product development means that we probably already have a KwikPeg device driver for your particular LCD video controller.

Additional Materials

	Be sure to read the comprehensive KwikPeg booklet. It provides an excellent overview of KwikPeg, a summary of the available drawing primitives and a list of the available input and output device drivers. The KwikPeg Window Builder, Image Converter and Font Grabber used to create your KwikPeg application are also described.
	You can also review the KwikPeg Manuals. Download the KwikPeg User's Guide and learn how to install KwikPeg, configure it to meet your GUI needs and integrate the result with KADAK's AMX RTOS. Then browse the on-line KwikPeg Reference Manual and examine the complete KwikPeg C/C++ application programming interface.
	The KwikPeg GUI toolkit includes a Configuration Manager, a Windows® utility which is used to tailor KwikPeg to meet your particular graphical requirements. Download the manager and see for yourself just how easy it is to adapt KwikPeg for your application.
