The Info object is only used at applet start-up. After that all applet
parameters are transferred (after adding default options to Info itself --
so that you can inspect that as you have) to the variable applet.__Info,
where applet is your applet object. These values in Info are then never
read again and may be changed when setting up the next object.
It is recommended that you use different Info variables for different
applets, but you don't have to.
