 I'm extremely happy to have ScummVM sideloaded on my iPad Pro! The only
 thing that would make it better is support for the Apple Magic Keyboard
 with trackpad that was just released.

 pro-129%E2%80%91inch-4th-generation-us-english

 Using 2.1.1, the touchpad is treated like a touch-emulator; the in-game
 cursor remains stationary unless the touchpad is clicked and dragged.
 Usability is frequently even more difficult than touch due to awkwardness
 of selecting pop-over menus such as can be found across the top of many
 SCI games.

 It might also be worth mentioning there's no escape key on this keyboard,
 so perhaps a key combination could be implemented as a shortcut to further
 improve usability. Apparently the standard is to use Command + . but using
 this combination in-game with the keyboard enabled via pinch doesn't seem
 to produce a response.

 Thanks for your work on ScummVM and your consideration of this feature
 request.
