-        This class is used to retrieve resources for a painted interface of
-        some sort. If the className is specified, then the owner of the resource
-        is fixed at painting time. If not, then the ApplicationModel which invokes
-        the painted interface is assumed to be the owner of the resource.
+    ST80 compatibility class.
+
+    The class is not completed yet and certainly not bug free.
+    Also, it is not guaranteed that all winSpecs are understood.
 
-        When the retriever is sent the message #value, it sends the message #valueFor:
-        to the resource owner, to retrive the resource
+    Notice: 
+        this class was implemented using protocol information
+        from alpha testers, literature and by reading public domain code
+        - it may not be complete or compatible to
+        the corresponding ST-80 class. 
+        If you encounter any incompatibilities, please forward a note 
+        describing the incompatibility verbal (i.e. no code) to the ST/X team.
