Hey, Rincewind! I like all of that. I really like the idea of a generalized gestures framework. If you could add double-tap and tap-and-hold detection to the gestures framework, that would be great. That way, a user could customize virtually any sequence of gestures to mean something. And we could have a default set of gestures for users who don't want to define their own.

The current set of gesture definitions could be included in the .ipdfrc file and editable in the ipdf-config utility...

Maybe ipdf-config could have "simple" mode, where you associate functions with predefined gestures, and "advanced" mode, where you can create your own gesture definitions...

For now, maybe we can determine a good set of default gestures and implement those, then in the following version add customizability, and the release after that add "advanced" mode. That would maintain backwards compatibility but still be able to include gestures in one of the early releases...

What do you think?
