fbpy 0.1 - noisegate/fbpy GitHub Wiki
The fbpy
module is an API for drawing in the framebuffer on Linux machines.
It was conceived as part of an audio player project based on the
raspberry pi computer and wolfson pi audio interface. I needed a low-level
graphics library for visualizing audio data (scope, phase,...). I also
wanted to gain some programming skills, like writing c libs for python and
some kernel stuff. So this module is by no means an attempt to make a
better graphics lib with fancy hardware acceleration or anythin or
making something original. I think it is use able though and by examining
the source, it might serve as a form of documentation if you want to
make something like this yourself. That is why I publish it. Oh, and of course
because I support open source hardware and software, the 'firmware' of
my audio player should be available as source :)
