== Introduction ==

pKNyX is written in pure [http://www.python.org python], so do not require any (annoying) (cross-)compilation! Its goal is to build in very simple and efficient applications to extend capabilities of KNX installations, by adding rules and/or virtual devices, and thus create a smart processor for KNX home automation.

This project is mainly a (partial) port of the great java library, [http://sf.net/p/calimero/wiki/Home Calimero], but add high level tools to be more user-friendly.

It is also inspired from the following projects:

 - [http://linknx.sf.net linknx]
 - [http://www.auto.tuwien.ac.at/~mkoegler/index.php/eibd eibd]
 - [http://eibnetmux.sf.net eibnetmux]
 - [http://code.google.com/p/openhab OpenHAB]
 - [http://knxathome.fh-deggendorf.de/wiki/index.php/Main_Page KNX@Home]
 - !PywireGate

The main target is [http://www.pcengines.ch/alix.htm ALIX board] running [https://openwrt.org OpenWRT], but can run on any system when python is available. It does not require any compilation.
== Main ==

== Supported hardware ==

== Supported plateforms ==

Every plateform supporting python can run pKNyX. This includes:

 * [http://openwrt.org OpenWRT] -- Any embedded device running OpenWRT
 * gnu/linux
 * Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 9, 10...
 * MacOS

== Unsupported plateforms ==

For the same reasons, these plateforms are not - and will probably never be - supported:

 * Palm
 * Play stations
 * Amstrad
 * ZX81
 * Washing machines
 * ...
