Has anyone used a lightpen on Amiga?
« on: February 25, 2010, 07:28:45 AM »
Hi all
As you know, Amiga computers have direct support for lightpen into the hardware.
Has anyone tried one on his amiga?
I'm thinking on build one, but I don't know any software for It.
Could you point me any tool/software for lightpens?

Hmmm... thanks. It would be useful for testing the hardware.
But I was thinking on real applications, like painting sotware, etc..

I know It only works on CRT screens, and I know It's not the best technology...
But I want to try It, and build a lightpen is easy... so, why not?
