Nevertheless, he has tolerated apparently some sending of little attachment, I have already done. But 1) those who have no mailer capable of understanding HTML did not get the message, or when they got it, it was through many clicking. 2) the drawing appears with the personal message of Google, making the text+drawing less fluid. The idea of a pen is to be able to mix text and little drawing quickly in bot writing/drawing and reading. The one who will succeed in a standard commercializing of such an emailer with JUST ONE pen (NOT a pen + a brush + color etc.) will be rich. Thanks for crediting me with the idea, I will ask only 1% of the benefice :-) Those drawings can be deformed with the condition that the deformation concerves the topology (a vague circle should remain a vague circle, not becoming a curved line with extremities).
