The repository epicswatch is intended to provide a graphical CLI tool for monitoring (i.e., “watching”) process variables of an EPICS control system.
The project is licensed under the MIT License.
The purpose of this software is to enable users to observe or monitor changes to EPICS PVs, viewing PV updates in real time, within a terminal. It is intended to be light weight and portable, allowing the user to run it on work stations that may not be suited for rendered graphical interfaces.
The implementation language is C.
TODO
Please view the current state of the project as experimental. Likely most of the codebase will be rewritten.
In comparison to other tools, epicswatch adopts an approach that may
be advantageous in environments requiring minimal dependencies or
tighter resource constraints.
