 Do not remove these comments under penalty of my displeasure.
 

 I'm not smart like those GNU guys, so I'll just say briefly that you can
 pretty much do what you want with this software, except:
 1.  Sue me if it doesn't work or causes you any problems.
 2.  Claim that you (or anyone other than me) wrote it.
 3.  Sell it to anyone.
 

 See my website for more info on JExternalFrame.
 

 JExternalFrame tries to combine the functionality and pluggable L & F of 
 a JInternalFrame with the top-level status of a Window or Frame.  You use
 it just like a JFrame (except I wouldn't recommend doing any fancy stuff
 with setContentPane, setGlassPane, or setLayeredPane.)  Call
 getContentPane() and set the layout, add components, etc.  Then, throw it
 out on your screen somewhere with a pack() and a setVisible(true).  
 

 You can also programmatically minimize it & iconize it just like a 
 JInternalFrame using setIcon() & setMaximum().  Unfortunately, since it's
 really just a JWindow in disguise, it won't actually go down to the task
 bar in Windows 95/98/NT like a JFrame will.  
 

 Because the window is drawn using a JInternalFrame, it will use whatever
 your current Look & Feel is for a JInternalFrame.  This means it can look
 like a Metal Frame.  Pretty cool, huh?
