Use the middle mouse button to move the canvas. + +Known Issues +------------ +VTE-based terminals, such as gnome-terminal, are terminally broken and you will +experience drawing artefacts. Those are neither a problem of this application, +nor a problem of ncurses as far as I can tell. + +To achieve the best results, please use a decent terminal such as rxvt-unicode +or xterm. These two are feature-full and *fast*. st also works great. + +Even so, try not to strain the application too much. It can and will break if +you flood the communication channel with the terminal. + +License +------- +'autistdraw' is written by Přemysl Janouch . + +You may use the software under the terms of the ISC license, the text of which +is included within the package, or, at your option, you may relicense the work +under the MIT or the Modified BSD License, as listed at the following site: + +http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html -- cgit v1.2.3
