W/O them the only copyright is on the code, so if I am careful not to look
at the code of others I will not copy it.  It is possable I will independitly
create the same code, but the chances of that are small (or it will be one
of the places copyright law understands that independent invention happens).

With it I don't know if I can have a menu that pops up, down, from the right,
or the left.  Mabie mine will have to do a fade-in...
