I have begun to dig around in the world of owner-drawn controls for
use in my new for-profit project. This includes (at a minimum) buttons
and menus. This project has also prompted a few updates to xControls,
so as soon as I get everything in working order, I will put out
another release of xControls.

If you can wait a few more weeks until I have a release of xControls,
then I suggest waiting, as I will have exactly what you need. If you
need this immediately, seek other routes.
