 * <STRONG>Documentation Convention:</STRONG> for proper

 * Internalization of Beans inside an RAD tool, sometimes there

 * are two names for a property or method: a programmatic, or

 * locale-independent name, which can be used anywhere, and a

 * localized, display name, for ease of use.  In the

 * documentation I will specify different String values as

 * either <EM>programmatic</EM> or <EM>localized</EM> to
