[javascript-dev] js disobeys law of cause and effect

Hi Joshua,

I thought I remembered some threads about not using jit.lcd for  
scripting, because it doesn't work properly.

About sending bangs - yes, I noticed that, which is why I am sending  
out many bangs to update the pen location after each "moveto" command.

Even with that, try hooking up a print to the output of the js object  
and see what kind of funky order the commands are printed out in.

Thanks
Evan
