Detailed Description

Base Class to Hook ToolEngines into the CellViewer.

This class implement the graphical conterpart of a ToolEngine. It is designed to work with the Unicorn GUI, to insert new menus and possibly define new graphical overlays (that are not associated to Hurricane::BasicLayer).

Derived classes should provide a method that returns a new GraphicTool to be passed to the Unicorn::UnicornGui::registerTool() method. For our tools, we choose to systematically implement a static method which we name grab().
