It provides a cleaner, and more orthogonal interface. libspnav +supports both the original X11 protocol for communicating with the driver, and +the new alternative non-X protocol. Programs that choose to use the X11 +protocol, are automatically compatible with either the free spacenavd driver +or the official 3dxserv, as if they were using the magellan SDK. + +Also, libspnav provides a magellan API wrapper on top of the new API. So, any +applications that were using the magellan library, can switch to libspnav +without any changes. And programmers that are familliar with the magellan API +can continue using it with a free library without the restrictions of the +official SDK.") + (license license:bsd-3))) |
