1. A method for indicating a gesture proximate to a touch-sensor, the method comprising: detecting a first presence of a conductive object proximate to said touch-sensor, said first presence lasting a first duration of time; initiating a gesture signal if said first duration of time is less than a first reference amount of time; detecting a second presence of said conductive object proximate to said touch-sensor, said second presence occurring a first elapsed time after an end of said first presence and lasting a second duration; terminating said gesture signal if said first elapsed time is greater than a second reference amount of time, otherwise terminating said gesture signal and initiating and terminating a second gesture signal if said first elapsed time is less than said second reference amount of time and if said second duration is less than a third reference amount of time.
