Features from the python (.net) version:
touchpad mode,
right-click,
scrolling,
customizable zones around the screen to trigger all of the above.

I also made a quick webpage with the release in the tar.gz format. It's now on fuelnatchos.webng.com/gtkwhiteboard. (I will probably move it to the wiiwhiteboard wiki soon)

The .net version of the whiteboard code has been updated to Brian Peek's latest version of the wiimotelib.

Changes tested on a MacBookPro running Windows XP with Apple's Bootcamp bluetooth stack.

Hello everyone. My hope in creating this SourceForge archive is to pool and stimulate the open source community to porting and hardening of the popular Wiimote Whiteboard program.
