Thanks, Dar. I understand that Wacom tablets may not be an obvious choice to 
work with LiveCode. I'll reconsider it. Maybe RealStudio is a better option or 
I'll have to get a different tablet.

The SDK seems for developing add-ons (minis) for the tablet only and not for 
facilitating input. I don't know if those minis allow me to do more than 
regular mouse clicks and drags. Besides a semi-official statement in a forum 
saying that developing your own gestures is impossible, I can't find any info 
about a C++ SDK, which would be very helpful.
