 *
 * A simple, no-frills gesture recognizer. Permits long-press recognition,
 * horizontal swipe recognition, and vertical swipe recognition. Recognizing
 * swipes in a particular direction (left, right, up, down) should be easy to
 * add later.
 *
 * The SimpleGesture class represents the basic recognizer -- it implements all
 * the tracking of touch and mouse events. Every 100ms it calls
 * a recognition function, which by default does nothing. Essentially, Simple-
 * Gesture is abstract. This method is expected to be overridden by a specific
 * recognizer, which the LongPressGesture, HorizontalSwipeGesture, and
 * VerticalSwipeGesture do.
 *
 * The LongPressGesture will fire off an event when a longpress is recognized.
 * How this is recognized is partially defined by the caller -- that is,
 * two durations can be supplied. By default, the long-press is recognized at
 * 1s and cancelled at 3s (assuming no previous recognition). It is also
 * cancelled should any movement outside of a 25px radius occur.
 *
 * The HorizontalSwipeGesture and VerticalSwipeGesture will fire off an event
 * when a swipe in the given axis is detected. This swipe is detected when the
 * length of the swipe exceeds 75px (or the provided override), and will be
 * fired as long as the duration of the swipe is less than the cancel duration
 * (3s by default). The line must not deviate by more than 25px in the specified
 * axis, or the gesture will fail to be recognized.
 *
 * Usage:
 *
 * var anElement = document.getElementById("abc");
 * var aLongPressGesture = new GESTURES.LongPressGesture
 *                             ( anElement, theFunctionToCallWhenRecognized,
 *                               [ thePressDuration, [ theCancelDelay ]] );
 *
 * var aHorizontalSwipeGesture = new GESTURES.HorizontalSwipeGesture
 *                               ( anElement, theFunctionToCallWhenRecognized,
 *                                 [ theSwipeLength, [ theCancelDelay ]] );
 *
 * var aVerticalSwipeGesture = new GESTURES.VerticalSwipeGesture
 *                             ( anElement, theFunctionToCallWhenRecognized,
 *                               [ theSwipeLength, [ theCancelDelay ]] );
 *
 *
 * Where: anElement is an HTML DOM element
 *        theFunctionToCallWhenRecognized is a function that will be called
 *            when the gesture is recognized. It will be passed the recognizer,
 *            and as such, one can store & retrieve data in this manner:
 *
 *                 aLongPressGesture.data = "Hello";
 *                 function theFunctionToCallWhenRecognized ( gr )
 *                 { alert (gr.data); }
 *
 *            This will generate an alert of "Hello" when the element is long-
 *            pressed.
 *
 *        thePressDuration: Optional, defaults to 1s. The amount of time required
 *            to recognize a long-press.
 *        theSwipeLength: Optional, defaults to 75px. The length of a swipe
 *            required to recognize a swipe.
 *        theCancelDelay: Optional, defaults to 3s. If a gesture is not recognized
 *            prior to this delay, the gesture is cancelled, that is, it will
 *            never be recognized.
