Hi there, newies! Usually I mess with Python, but I’ve been having WAY TOO MUCH FUN making multitouch applications using The Lily Application Framework.

So, here’s a library to make this really really easy to work with:

lily2dcur
http://code.google.com/p/2dcur/source/browse/#svn/trunk/lily2dcur

This is a set of externals (*.js), some help patches (*.json) and one demo application (lily2dcurDemo.json w/ history.pde)

So, for you Processing.JS fans, here’s your chance to make multitouch applications in the web browser and save them as a executable XUL Runner applications, Firefox add-ons, or simply develop and run these applications all from within Firefox itself.

Wiring it up is simple, so here are screenshots of the help patches (serve also as documentation and basic examples of programs):

And here is the end result using a basic Processing.js file:

remember to install the lily firefox add-on from:
http://www.lilyapp.org/

and then download and install this new code from here:
http://code.google.com/p/2dcur/source/browse/#svn/trunk/lily2dcur

Have fun! Any comments greatly appreciated.

yeah my handwriting (especially with a mouse) is pretty bad ;p ... note that I had to do the same FLOSC byte increase from 1024 to 4096 and recompile that java code in order to support more than 5 fingers at a time… this is mentioned elsewhere in the forum for FLOSC stuffs…
