Oh you 'nix people. Okay, "vct" then. ;)

Mark doesn't like abbreviations. We're at his mercy.

As I said one of the goals of this control would eventually be to replace
the image object - so at some point (all being well) you will be able to do:

    set the filename of <insertcontrolname> "foo" to "foo.png"
    set the filename of <insertcontrolname> "foo" to "foo.gif"
    set the filename of <insertcontrolname> "foo" to "foo.jpg"
    set the filename of <insertcontrolname> "foo" to "foo.png"
    ...

Or

    set the content of <insertcontrolname> "foo" to tPngData
    ...

At this point, describing the control as a 'vectorImage' might also seem
confusing.



It's short for "thing that can handle vectors or images". VectorsOrImages
-> Vector/Image -> VectorImage -> vi.

We *will* get an abbreviation, right?
