Using Python for a Wacom tablet on Mac & Linux

I am shortly going to buy a Wacom Bamboo Pen&Touch, and I'd like to be able to access it from Python, preferably using PyQt. I've found a Python module for accessing it under windows (cgkit/wintab) and I've seen Python code for accessing it using GTK (GnomeTabletApps).

Is there an equivalent for Mac? The Cocoa documentation provided by Wacom is way beyond me.

  • PySide's QTabletEvent works on Mac. I have also used it on Ubuntu. http://www.pyside.org/docs/pyside/PySide/QtGui/QTabletEvent.html#PySide.QtGui.QTabletEvent
