== Description ==

libud7 is a device driver for the UD7 display device. The website for

the device is at

http://www.gadgetdisplay.com

The device is a simple cell-phone screen like display, that will

render a 128x128 image. Features of hardware/library include:

* Display/update 128x128 16-bit (565) image

* Update subportions of image

* Turn device on/off

* Set display backlight levels

* Hardware button for interaction

== Package Information ==

Source repo @ http://www.github.com/qdot/libud7

== Platform Support ==

* Linux - Tested on Ubuntu 11.04

* OS X - Untested, should work?

* Windows - Won't work at the moment. Need to figure out which USB

  library to install.

== Library Requirements ==

* Python - http://www.python.org

* libusb-1.0 - http://www.libusb.org

* pyusb 1.0+ - http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyusb/files/

== Platform Cavaets ==

=== Linux ===

You'll need to either run as root or set up a udev rule to switch out

permissions on the base VID/PID. We'll hopefully have a udev rule

checked in shortly.

=== OS X ===

None known yet. 

=== Windows ===

Don't even know if it works there yet.

== Future Plans ==

* Windows support

* Implement library in C
