Start drawing onPenDown() Event option like Photoshop

is there a way to start drawing with the brush, pencil or blob tool on a PenDown() Event, like in photoshop? Both penDown and mouseDown events work in PShop.

Currently [in illustrator] a dot or line, only appears on a penUp or penMove, mouseUp or mouseMove (im fine with the mouse events).
thus it seems like there is a delay when drawing small shading or detailing lines quickly.

If there is such an option, let me know. I cant seem to find it, or a hack on the net anywhere.
I work in vector mostly, so having that eventListener would make it a more natural feel, esp for an artist.

Hope someone can help even with some sort of coding hack.
