Re: [ts-7000] TS-4800/8390 - Simple GUI programming for touchscreen

[Larry <>]

I recommend you install and develop using FLTK. It's free, open source and works well
on a small platform like the 8390. I've been using it on both the 7390 and 8390 for awhile
and have become a big fan. You can google FLTK and find documentation and code for it.
I have a numeric and also an alpha keyboard on screen application, as well as a lot of other stuff,
if you need help.   You can code in C++ or C.

I'm fairly new to programming on boards in general, let alone the TS-4800/8390, so I appreciate any help/tips/suggestions on accomplishing what I intend. And I apologize, in advance, for asking any "newbie"-type questions.

My goal: to develop a simple GUI numeric-keypad on the touchscreen of the TS-4800/8390. Pushing a button would provide a simple output or would execute a snippet of code. I would like to develop in C (or C++), but open to other languages/options.

What's the best way to get started coding. I heard cross-compiling is one option, and there's SSH. Which method is recommended based on ease of setup and quicker development time?

As many details on this would be very helpful.
