Just curious -- does JFW have an auto-label graphics feature like
Window-Eyes and Window Bridge. I don't recall such a feature being
mentioned in the documentation. Is it in the JFW users default scripts?
I find it an elegant and efficient way of labeling all graphics on a
screen that have associated tooltips.
