Listor java class

The applet wraper aint very pretty, but it at least gives you some bars to play with.

Oops. You dont have java in your browser. Oh well, here's a bad screenshot.

[Summary of usage taken from the comments in the code]

/**
 * Listor class is vaguely like a table object. But it is simpler,
 * so it is both easier to understand, and easier to work with.
 * It allows you to lay out a basic "table" of data, and also allows
 * the USER to resize the rows as they desire.
 *
 * Rather than being 'cell' oriented, Listor is row oriented.
 * For example, you can highlight a row, but not a specific field of
 * a row. This simplifies things greatly.
 *
 *
 * There are a few hard-codes in here, but not too many.
 *
 * General use: Create a new instance of Listor, which is a subclass
 * of a regular AWT Panel.
 * You must define the number of columns you want, now and forever.
 * You also should define a total width currently.
 * 
 * From this point, you will want to do one or more of three operations;
 *
 *   Define column names, through Listor.setColName()
 *   Define initial column widths, through Listor.setColName()
 *   Add data rows, through Listor.addValues()
 *
 * Note that there is no "changeValues()" call; it is unneccessary,
 * since the values are only referenced, not copied.
