 tekUI is a small and freestanding graphical user interface (GUI)
-toolkit. Its main focus is on rapid development of custom-made
-applications, often with a custom appearance and under
-resource-constrained conditions - such as for embedded systems with a
-display controller. However, tekUI was initially developed for the X
-Window System and can serve as a general-purpose toolkit for desktop
-applications as well.

 Being mostly written in the Lua scripting language (see
-[[http://www.lua.org/]]), it is easily extensible with new user
-interface elements, which can be ported to C later, if necessary. See
-below for a more detailed technical [[#overview]].
