/* The applet, which I called the "ShapesAndColors", consists of a control panel,     */
/* and a drawing area.  The Control Panel is located at the south (bottom) end of     */
/* the applet.  It contains three choice controls (pull-down menus)-Shape, Color,     */
/* Style- and one "Reset" button:                                                     */
/*     - The Shape Control allows the user to choose among three shapes to draw:      */

/*     - The Color Control allows the user to determine the chosen shape's color.     */
/*       The available colors are Green, Blue and Yellow.                             */
/*     - The Style Control offers the user the ability to draw a Hollow, or Filled    */
/*       shape.                                                                       */

/* The Drawing Area forms the rest of the applet.  It has a light gray background,    */
