New ideas

Since I finished the Scale class I have been looking for my next move. I decided to use the eco software runtime and libraries to add support to the missing controls. The downside is that you would actually need the runtime installed before you can use the SWT port.
The other line of work has been to include in the trunk additional classes we need compile in order to make Eclipse port work. I added the boot.jar and the startup.jar to the tree. They both compile now using ant.cmd boot.jar or ant.cmd startup.jar. A lot of investigation needs to be done before moving forward in these tasks.
Finally the last line of work has been the creation of a working test that I can upload to the net and somehow demonstrate where I am with the SWT port. I'm going to use the control example from the eclipse distribution. Hopefully I'll have ready next week
