Welcome to the tsWxGTUI_PyVx_Repository wiki!

1. Purpose

   The TeamSTARS "tsWxGTUI_PyVx" Toolkit provides recipients with both a Python 2x & Python 3x based Command Line Interface (CLI) and with a "Curses"-based "wxPython"-style, Graphical-Text User Interface (GUI).

   It provides a collection of building-block components, tools, utilities, and tests for creating, enhancing, troubleshooting, maintaining and supporting application programs that are suitable for embedded systems.

2. Application Programs

   Automation, communication, control, diagnostic, instrumentation and simulation application programs typically require an "operator-friendly" Command Line Interface (CLI) or a Graphical-style User Interface (GUI) that can be controlled locally or remotely.

3. Embedded Systems

   Mission-critical systems for commercial, industrial, medical and military applications are typically customized and optimized for a specific use. Unlike their general-purpose desktop, laptop and workstation counterparts, embedded systems typically have limited, application-specific processing, memory, communication, input/output and file storage resources. Some may have character-mode hardware only suitable for their operating system's command line console.
