   Apple Technical note number #79 gives is a short but useful note
about doing zooming. In particular it gives some sample code on how
to handle zooming. It also indicates that the DataHandle part of the
window record contants a pointer to a structure that consists of two 
rectanges (not pointers to rectangles). The first rectangle is the unzoomed
state and the second is the zoomed state. The note is careful to mention
that you should make sure DataHandle is not NIL since that would be the
case on a non-zoomable window (i.e. the user is using the old ROM).
