ANNOTATE: Adds Handwriting to a Text File

ANNOTATE adds handwriting information to a text file. This
sample can serve as a starting point for writing pen-
centric annotation applications.

 There are many issues involved in writing an application
that offers full-scale annotations: movement, saving ink
to a file, delayed recognition, and use of gestures. To
attach ink to a specified position of the text file
involves scrolling and repainting the ink in the
appropriate position. ANNOTATE demonstrates a scrolling
algorithm that scrolls the ink with the text file
appropriately. Other scrolling algorithms are also
possible. The RedisplayPenData function redisplays the
ink, and the DuplicatePenData function saves ink over the
life of the application.

ANNOTATE also demonstrates how to change ink color and
width dynamically.

ANNOTATE was built and tested under Microsoft(R)
Windows(TM) version 3.1. The program requires PENWIN.DLL,
which can be found in both Microsoft Windows for Pen
Computing and the Microsoft Windows version 3.1 Software
Development Kit (SDK).
