The last commit to the TOAD repository is quite a major one and it might break a lot: I've switched the screen coordinates to floating point because
- it is not 1995 anymore,
- Cairo (X11) and Cocoa (Mac OS X) are also using floating point coordinates and
- a graphic tablet can deliver more than just a single integer per axis for a single point.
The changes (there are more) is also destined towards a potential native Mac OS X port of TOAD. In fact, there is already some Objective-C code in the source.
