+/**
+ * This file defines a number of simple classes (virtual base: ConfParamW) 
+ * which let the user input configuration parameters. 
+ *
+ * Subclasses are defined for entering different kind of data, ie a string, 
+ * a file name, an integer, etc.
+ *
+ * Each configuration gui object is linked to the configuration data through
+ * a "link" object which knows the details of interacting with the actual
+ * configuration data, like the parameter name, the actual config object, 
+ * the method to call etc.
+ * 
+ * The link object is set when the input widget is created and cannot be 
+ * changed.
+ *
+ * The widgets are typically linked to a temporary configuration object, which
+ * is then copied to the actual configuration if the data is accepted, or
+ * destroyed and recreated as a copy if Cancel is pressed (you have to 
+ * delete/recreate the widgets in this case as the links are no longer valid).
