/* This is all original material, with the exception of the double buffering, which
* I hacked out of a quote-ticker program. The game is a GREAT example of object-heirarchy.
* I also supported multithreading, but it just made things run slower, actually!
* For this reason the multithreading was removed...
* PARAMETERS:
* wid: the width of the applet (integer)
* hei: the height of the applet (integer)
* Feel free to modify or distribute as you wish, as long as you include:

* Appletviewer has its bugs.... netscape _is_ a bug.
