 Note that this will NOT work - at all - if you don't know basically how to draw kanji. If you just draw
 something any old way that looks like it, it certainly won't be recognised. You have to draw characters
 basically the official way.
-
-That said there are two forms of recognition: exact (you must enter the character with the correct
-stroke count, stroke order, and direction) and inexact (you must draw basically the correct strokes
-but can use any order and direction). If the inexact search doesn't find it, you can try searching
-for characters with 1 stroke more or fewer than you drew. This might sound complicated but the
-interface is easy; you get exact results straight away, if it's not there then hit the button and wait
-for inexact results (this takes several seconds, there's a progress bar), and if it's not there either,
-you can go onto the +/- 1 results.
-
-Notes:
-# If you've drawn a character and the 'Done' button is still greyed out, this is because it's still loading the data file. It usually only takes a few seconds, so please wait. This only happens the first time you draw a character after starting the app.
-# Some characters don't work very well if you draw them in the normal handwriting style. The data is based on print style. If you have difficulty getting a character recognised, try drawing it like the print version.
