Hi Aquarium,

It's probably true, but then there's the whole thing with Apples closed attitude to development, they have this thing called 'Objective-C'. I guess Perl could be ported to it, but I don't imagine anyone's done it yet.

You *have* to register your iPad, you *have* to have iTunes, you *have* to have an account with the Apple shop. There's just too much in the way of obligations out there.

Anyhow, it should be possible just get the scrolling thing sorted out quite easily: the scroll has some momentum of its own and continues at the rate of movement of the mouse after you stop scrolling, but with some gradual damping.

Have a good day.

Steve
