I'm using <canvas> to capture user input in the form of a signature and am trying to figure out how to smooth the input from the mouse.

I think I need to process the user's mouse movements chunk by chunk and smooth each chunk, I'm not after super smoothing but any improvement on the jagged input would be good.

Thanks, Mark
