Aw man, I don't have a mouse or trackball with me today. The trackpad sucks for drawing.

I wish there was something I could do in freehand drawing interfaces that assumed mouse-button-down and let me just drag.

Perhaps a keyboard shortcut to replace mouse-button-down, that definitely sounds do-able.

LeftAlt + LeftShift + Numlock? Then 0 to hold mouse button and . to release.
