The version you look at is using lightweight widgets. All Buttons, 
TextFields, Lists etc. are implemented in Java, not native. The only native 
support you need is for

 - toplevels (Window, Frame, opt. Dialog)
 - Graphics
 - Font / FontMetrics
 - input acquisition (keyboard, mouse)

There are other versions around (native toolkit based), but I'm currently 
revising the system so that it becomes more simple to interface to Win32, Qt 
and other widget toolkits.
