Ok, I was thinking of a default l&f to be used by a TGUI so you can change
the l&f independently from the GUI. Maybe that wasn't clear.

Hmm. As a newbie to JOS some questions now stirr up, which I wasn't able to
solve by reading the WIKI-Pages. (Maybe I just haven't found them)
What are the proposals of this socket? The whole System-IO things will be
done in jos.ui and org.jos.io and the API is already done in the
java-classes so you should be able to write an ui with that or did I miss
something obvious?
Thanks for answering these ones.
Thomas.
