Oh, you made it! :)
Finally I can write like before and no chars are missed (I hope, better
- with less touch screen errors :P).
Just another thing... I've read somewhere that in this implementation
you don't consider the finger pressure, is this true (i.e. have I
understood correctly)?
Couldn't it be used for improving the precision (always thinking to the
writing action, when you use your thumbstone, generally you cover a
quite large area of the touchscreen, but the power is concentrated on a
smaller area [that isn't always the center of the covered area])...
However many thanks for your work, the fact that an one-line patch
improved the usability underlines the bounty of your complete patchset ;)
