    While playing with Richard's technique, I also discovered that while drawing with the mouse, you can alternate between drawing freehand and then pressing the [Alt] key to draw a straight line or [Alt]+[Ctl] keys to draw a straight vertical/horizontal line, and then back to freehand by releasing those keys. All within the same stroke. It's a little hard to explain, so see the attached for a sample.

    Also, it can be tricky getting a perfectly vertical/horizontal line with drawing with [Alt]+[Ctl] and releasing those keys. The cursor sometimes seems to "jump" from the ending point.
