Mowitz (“More widgets”) library

This is the Mowitz “More widgets” library.

The project’s goal is to create a library of widgets for X applications to use. The widgets have been snarfed from various sources and are all open source GPL or MIT licenses.

Available widgets

o Canvas			    o Ruler
o Check				    o Slider
o Combo				    o Spinner
o Frame				    o Tabs
o Handle			    o TextField
o Image				    o Tooltip
o ListTree			    o VSlider
o Notebook
o Rudegrid			    o And a complete menu kit.

The original reason for creating this library is that the Athena widget set lacks a lot of widgets that would be useful, and many of the existing widgets leave a lot to be desired in appearance and behaviour.
