Why do you have to copy a text to a separate field? Obtaining field pointer
via FldGetTextPtr() should be quite enough for a quick peek at its last
character (don't forget it can return NULL!).

Furthermore, you can just cache the input into your own buffer - depending
on how you write your localization - and thus increase the speed
additionally; of course, on certain events you'd want to reset the cache.

Finally, what you describe does not seem to me like a true
replacement/enhancement of the built-in grafitty character recognition. Or
is it? There are many occassions where there will not be a field and you'd
still want to be active.

You shouldn't rely on fields for a good general-purpose localization
project.
