 THE STORY
 ----------------------

 Anyone being the author of more than one MUI based application most
 probably realized, that using some predefined MUI macros
 (<libraries/mui.h>) speeds up 'writting' the GUI, but most of the authors
 sooner of later write their own bunch of functions and uses them for
 creation of the gui instead of standard one.  And so did I, creating my
 own pool of routines I use in my apps to approach "TLBRTS" (Type Less But
 Reach The Same{tm} ;-) goal.

 I just moved all my own MUI related helper-functions into the shared
 library (named muitoolkit as you probably guessed).  It features all
 helpful functions *I* use in my apps to create user interface (valid
 at least for verion 1.0 of MT ;-).

 Among the object creation functions, MuiToolkit also features string,
 numeric string requester (something like ReqTools offers for instance)
 etc.  And I plan more of course.  For now, don't forget to watch enclosed
 demo program!

 Take a closer look. I hope you'll like it!
