12<P>The Swing components are written in Java, without window-system-specific
13code. This facilitates a customizable look and feel without relying on the
14native windowing system, and simplifies the deployment of applications.
15Swing also supports a pluggable look and feel architecture. This feature
16will give users the ability to switch the look and feel of an application
17without restarting it and without the developer having to subclass the entire
18component set.</P>
