though without having to use OpenGL or other heavy external libraries. This Class is self
contained and very light. Please review samples\TestCF1.prg for a working example. You may
review its documentation from the FiveTech wiki:

FWDispBegin() from the Method Paint().
* New: function DBufferEnd( <hDC>, <aInfo> ) –> nil. Part of the double buffer painting
technique. Updates and reactivates the original DC of the window to be painted. This function
is to be used from functions, not from the Method Paint(). Please use FWDispEnd() from
the Method Paint().

* New: function SkinButtons(), it changes the look of all your standard windows buttons in
your application. By default it uses the Office 2007 look colors. You can use your own
