public class PermFrame
extends debug_interactor_applet
This is the main class for the Applet version of the Domisilica GUI.

It contains a mudClient for connection to the PALplate.

It also provides PALplates users with a toolbar from which they can run various applications. Other applets running in the browser can register and remove them. For now, the toolbar consists of images and URLs. If an image is clicked on, then the associated URL is loaded into the app frame. Everything added to the toolbar is stuff the mud told us about right now.
