1. Currently using the Simplified Wrapper Interface Generator (SWIG) toolkit to develop a replacement for the out-dated and unmaintained Python Standard Curses Library originally created for AT&T Unix System V R4 Curses. The replacement is expected to provide:a) The full Application Programming interfaces to 32-bit/64-bit NCurses 6.x.b) The full.

1. Developed, enhanced and maintained the TeamSTARS "tsWxGTUI" Toolkit source code, a library of general-purpose, re-usable building block modules for embedded systems. The building blocks:a) Provides both Command Line and Graphical-style User Interfaces that enable application developers to focus on the application specific functionality and not waste.

3. Command Line Interface includes building blocks create a sophisticated POSIX-/ Unix-like terminal interface. It features:a) Command line keyword option and positional argument parsing;b) Error/exception handling;c) Event logging to application designated terminals, files or devices;d) Launching, event dispatching and terminating of the Graphical-style.

4. Graphical-style User Interface includes building blocks that create a sophisticated Desktop, Laptop and Workstation Computer-like terminal interface. Using the “nCurses” character-mode and xterm libraries of the host platform, it emulates a subset of the "wxPython" pixel-mode Graphical User Interface. This enables “wxPython” applications to run with.

g) Sizers (non-windows) containing sizers or windows for tables of data or buttons; h) Panels (windows) containing sizers or windows;i) Buttons (windows) for operator control action triggers,j) Check boxes (windows) containing buttons for enabling/disabling any one or combination of several operator mode and option control action triggers; k) Radio boxes.

Developed prototype of TeamSTARS "tsWxGTUI" Toolkit source code.Developed Python based platform independent libraries to support development of diagnostic, instrumentation and control software.Developed window, frame, dialog, button, gauge, scrollable text and basic color output widget portions for Python emulation of “wxPython” that used UNIX “curses”.
