Abstract
--------
This article is designed to give the reader a general introduction to
the functionality of the Microsoft Windows pen driver by explaining
what the source does and how it does it. It is assumed that the reader
has a basic understanding of pen driver functionality and is familiar
with the Windows Device Driver Kit (DDK).
The files that make up the pen driver can be found in the Windows for
Pen Computing OEM adaptation kit and in the Windows version 3.1 DDK
directory. The files of interest are: DISABLE.ASM, ENABLE.ASM,
FILTER.ASM, INSTALL.ASM, LOAD.ASM, MISC.ASM, PLAY.ASM, WACOM.ASM, and
DIALOGS.C. It is important that these source files be read in
conjunction with this article.
For related information on this topic, see the article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base titled "Understanding the Windows Virtual Pen
Driver."
This article is divided into three sections. The first section
provides some background information about the pen driver, the second
section introduces the source files used to build the driver, and the
third section describes the pen driver source code in detail.
