was originally written by Mike Steed. The code was freely available from his
website at one point, which I am no longer able to find. I believe the license
was a kind of public domain, at least compatible with our MIT/X11 license.
The original code was well written with it's own coding style which was not
very far from the Haiku coding style. I have hopefully adopted it completely
to our coding style. While I did this, I came across several places with
comments for a minor bug which I was able to resolve all. I also found ways
to simplify certain places and I elliminated all non-necessary "inter-class
knowledge" which was used to directly access members of other classes which
should have been private.
All in all, this should be a nice little addition, a useful tool which I found
handy a lot of times. If I should not have added this without first consulting
everyone, please voice your disagreement, and it can be removed it again. It
is not part of the image yet.
