I will let Eric answer. There were two versions, his initial version and a second version that he and I worked on together which is much more advanced. I believe the first one is available on GitHub, I don’t know about the second version. If you look for a wxITTY on get hub you may find the first version. Let’s see if he put the second version out there. I Recommend second version.
