Download the stack "penTool032e":

http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/alejandro/stacks/penTool032e.zip

and use everything what you find useful for your application,
including scripts and icons, just leftout my errors  :-D.

Follow these steps: 

Use Ken Ray's Stackrunner to test penTool032e
for the first time. 

http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/livecode/downloads/StackRunner.htm

After opening StackRunner, open first the stack named:
"StartPen" and click on the button "Users".
The button "Developers" is only useful to browse the stack's
scripts inside the LiveCode IDE.

Then, click in the topleft button ("New Drawing") and start
playing with the tools. Dismiss any error dialog the appears
from time to time and experiment with the unfinished tools.

Remember to save the stack (drawing) frecuently, just in
case that you inadvertently step on one bug (all my fault)
that crash Stackrunner.
