The scrolling of letters definitely feel smoother/higher fps

Ahh, ok. This is probably because you were uploading to RAM. Apps normally get executed from Flash, so the JS has to be loaded from flash as it is running.

If you need a function to stay in RAM so it runs quickly you can put "ram" at the front - like:
```
function myFn() {
  "ram"
  // my code
}
```
I suspect the whole screen is redrawn every blink of the marker

It is, yes - just updating the marker on its own would be a great addition! Same happens for the keyboard one too I think.

I see! I thought everything had to be loaded into RAM when executed, great to know it doesn't. I'll probably make a setting for choosing to run from Flash or loading it into RAM then. (Do you suggest default being to run from Flash or is it more or less inconsequential?)

just updating the marker on its own would be a great addition!

I'll try doing that!
