A framework for multi-document applications

Putting together a multi-window multi-document application requires careful planning. A number of common problems can be solved in a framework, however.

	Application	manages global aspects of an application.
	Document	manages the representation of a document based on a file.
	TextSelection	manages a (global) text selection for cut and paste operations.
	DynamicMenuItem	enables itself depending on it's PotentialActionListener.
	PotentialActionListener	can be asked if it is able to act.
	Modal	static convenience methods for modal messages.
	OpenFile	interface for RMI between server and client instances.
	EditApplication	manages a text editor.
	EditDocument	manages a text document.
