    DESCRIPTION
           EZ_RegisterWidget  registers  a  custom designed widget to
           the EZ widget library.  After a new widget is  registered,
           it  can  be  handled  the  same  as  other  widgets in the
           library.  Here is an example

           #include "EZ.h"

           #define TEST_TYPE    65537    /* type starts at 65537 */

           void TESTsetup(EZ_Widget *widget) { }

           void TESTfreeData(EZ_Widget *widget) { }

           void TESTcomputeSize(EZ_Widget *widget, int *w, int *h)
           {  *w =200; *h=60; }

           void TESTdraw(EZ_Widget *widget)
           {
             EZ_DrawRectBorder(widget, EZ_GetWidgetWindow(widget));
           }

           void TESTeventHandle(EZ_Widget *widget, XEvent *event)
           {  if(event->type == Expose) TESTdraw(widget); }

           main(int ac, char **av)
           {
             EZ_Widget *frame1, *test, *btn;

             EZ_Initialize(ac,av,0);

             /* register our TEST  widget     */
             EZ_RegisterWidget(TEST_TYPE, TESTsetup, TESTcomputeSize,
                         TESTdraw, TESTfreeData, TESTeventHandle);

             frame1 = EZ_CreateWidget(EZ_WIDGET_FRAME,   NULL,
                                      EZ_FILL_MODE,      EZ_FILL_BOTH,
                                      EZ_LABEL_STRING,   "Test Widget",
                                      NULL);

             test =   EZ_CreateWidget(TEST_TYPE,       frame1,
                                EZ_BORDER_TYPE,  EZ_BORDER_UP,
                                      EZ_FOREGROUND,   "red",
                             EZ_BACKGROUND,   "#00afaf",
                             EZ_BORDER_WIDTH, 6,
                                      NULL);
             btn =    EZ_CreateWidget(EZ_WIDGET_NORMAL_BUTTON,  tmp,
                                      EZ_LABEL_STRING,          "A Button",
                                      EZ_BACKGROUND,            "#af00af",
