[ANN] AMRollOverButton class

AMRollOverButton class

Apple first used this kind of button in Safari's bookmarks bar (as far as I can remember, that is). This button highlights when you move the mouse pointer over it. In addition it sports text shadows and configurable colors. You can also attach a menu which will be indicated by a small triangle inside the button. Dragging is not yet implemented.

Techniques demonstrated:

- roll over effect
- subclassing NSCell
- implementing mouse tracking for cell
- basic drawing (NSBezierPath, Strings, Shadows ...)
- creating a custom Interface Builder palette

I *know* you all crave for those cool buttons that Safari uses in it's bookmarks bar  come, get 'em! :-)
