Easystroke is a gesture-recognition application for X11.
Gestures or strokes are movements that you make with you
mouse (or your pen, finger etc.) while holding down a specific
mouse button. Easystroke will execute certain actions if
it recognizes the stroke; currently easystroke can emulate
key presses, execute shell commands, hold down modifiers and
emulate a scroll wheel. 

The program was designed with Tablet PCs in mind and can be
used effectively even without access to a keyboard. Easystroke
tries to provide an intuitive and efficient user interface,
while at the same time being highly configurable and offering
many advanced features.

Easystroke requires gtkmm.  If you'd also like the manpage installed
then help2man needs to be installed and then pass COMPILE_MAN=yes
to the slackbuild.
