Ok, so the cursor slides over the current line and tries to stay close to
gridpoints in terms of 45Â/90Â metrik. Just recompiled and gave it a test 
run. Very nice! I like it. 

Side-note: I keep patching src/hid/common/hidnogui.c every time I clone 
the git repo. The application falsely assumes an error if invalidate_lr 
is called without a running GUI. This prevents action scripts from the 
command line do useful work like flip the board for back side printing.
It also prevents me from distributing my command line printing scripts
to students and collegues.
Any chance that this gets fixed?
