broken and generates bogus pointer movements.)

processing. This fixes several problems:
* Double tap and drag now works. (Problem reported by Andrew Pimlott
<andrew@pimlott.net>.)
* Locked drags are handled correctly, even for button 2 and 3
tap-and-drag operations.
* The [LR][TB]CornerButton and TapButton[123] parameters now work also
for button values > 3.
* The old code was too hard to understand.
BTN_TOOL_FINGER, BTN_TOOL_DOUBLETAP and BTN_TOOL_TRIPLETAP. Note that
this swaps the direction of the Y axis internally to match X and the
linux input subsystem. Because of this, the TopEdge and BottomEdge
parameters must be modified in the config file. There is some backwards
compatibility code for old 2.5/2.6 kernels that will probably be
deleted later.
* Added "multi-buttons" to the FEATURES list.
* Updated NEWS file with data from the web page.
* More robust parsing of the Handlers= line when doing auto detection
for 2.6 kernels. ("Handlers=event2 js0" should now work.)
* Updated synclient program to explain that it can't query hardware
details when using a 2.6 kernel.
on packets arriving 1s after the last state change. (The kernel driver
only reports to user space when something changes.) Use wall clock time
instead of packet counting for time computations. This change also
means that configurable times are now specified in milliseconds instead
of units of 1/80s.
* Build synclient by default.
* Made it possible to build synclient even if an X source tree is not
available.
* Added Makefile dependencies so that things get recompiled when a
header file is changed.
* synclient.c now includes synaptics.h instead of duplicating the
shared memory segment definitions.
