AMIB: A Mini Interface Builder.

You'll find enclosed a mini interface builder for STklos. It is written in
STklos and it was developped quickly in spare time. I thought that it was
possible to have a prototype of an interface builder in less than 300 lines...
I loosed since it is (exactly!) 400 lines long.
Remember it is a prototype and not a complete tool. In particular nothing is
done to change default bindings.
Enjoy
