AWT Enhancements

In 1.1, the architecture of the AWT was improved to make large-scale GUI development more feasible and to add basic functionality that was missing from 1.0.2. The most significant of the improvements were a new event model and the capability to create lightweight components. APIs for printing, better scrolling, popup menus, clipboard (copy/paste), and cursors per component were added. Also, enhancements were made to imaging and graphics, and font support was made more flexible to accomodate internationalization.
