You write your own controls just like any other piece of code, 'cause thats
all they is.  For example, if you have ever seen Don Brown's "Executive Dec-
ision Maker", he draw all of the buttons and things by hand.  What you do is
write a subroutine that makes all the quickdraw/sound/<Pick your manager> calls
and returns some expected value.  This is, in a more optomized form, exactly
what the mac does itself.  For a good idea of whats going on, write a tiny
application that just lets you click a button, or move a scroll bar, and use
MacsBug to watch the calls as they happen; you can also disassemble the
control that way too.....
