JPen is a library for accessing pen/digitizer tablets and pointing devices. Its key features are:

• Event/listener architecture.
• Device access is implemented through providers. JPen contains providers for Linux (XInput), Windows (wintab) and the mouse (java AWT mouse). OS X support is in beta.

JPen uses Java 5 and was tested using Wacom Graphire4 and Intuos3 pen tablets under Linux and Windows XP. It should work fine using any tablet that supports wintab on Windows (NT/2000/XP), and the XInput extension on X11 Linux.
