A new Query object is created each time the user asks for a new query
window.  This code manages the query window and is the primary interface
to the Qi server for query requests.  The methods are grouped by function
and roughly in the order they are called by previous methods.

Revision 3.0  93/06/26  07:59:17  rpruess
Brought Ph code up to NeXTSTEP 3.0 specifications.

Revision 2.4  91/12/19  09:27:23  rpruess
Fixed timing bug whereby "hide" preference option caused Ph to crash
in the situation where the socket had timed out before the user unhid
Ph.  Then, Ph would crash if the user selected the "fields" view.

Revision 2.3  91/12/11  08:48:27  rpruess
Added code to verify the search string was non-null when doing name
searches.  If it is null, an alert panel is displayed.  The user can
still beat this simple check by entering a blank search string.  Oh well.

Revision 2.2  91/12/10  16:30:51  rpruess
Moved the timer code from QueryManager to Query.  Each Query object is
now responsible for determining when it has received the server "fields"
data.  This code was added prior to the initial Ph Version 2.0 release.

Revision 2.1  91/11/20  08:47:36  rpruess
Added code to clear the ScrollView of old data just before a new search
is begun.  This provides a clear signal to the user as to when the search
has really finished.  Prior to this code, consecutive searches which
returned the same data did not provide as clear a signal as to when it
had finished a search.

Revision 2.0  91/11/19  08:19:29  rpruess
Revision 2.0 is the initial production release of Ph.
