/* 	STSwapBoxManager.m
	created by Robert Vasvari - July 1994

	This class is an abstract superclass that is
	supposed to make it easier to add or modify
	multi screen preferences panels.
	The steps to take to add a new swapBox:
	1: make a new box in IB that contains the matrices,
	   textfields etc, and fit it into the mid-section
	   of the panel. At runtime the subviews of the panel
	   will be parsed. All boxes that have a title in the form:
	   "screen box %d" will be hooked up to the popup cell with
	   tag %d.
	2: set the necessary pointers to the box and its contents.
	3: subclass the following methods:
		- loadDataFor:(int)boxTag;
		- dataChanged:sender;
		- set:sender;
	Hopefully it will just work...
