OK. Here's my first cut at adding the events to the awjni that Andrew
published. 1) I didn't do the callbacks; but it should be obvious from
this how the callbacks could be done, 2) I debated using a data structure
to hold the various void xyz(void) event-handler function data; but I don't
think it would have reduced the source bloat, 3) some creepy things
happened to me w.r.t. the java.library.path (which is used by the jvm to
find the non-relocatable libaw.dll) and the $PATH variable (under bash
this is used by GCC to find the aw.dll). But, if you take a look at the
example ConverBot <http://www.swarm.com/aw/ConverBot/ConverBot-0.1.tar.gz>,
it should be obvious how to execute it. Please read the license.txt
<http://www.swarm.com/aw/ConverBot/LICENSE.TXT> before downloading
ConverBot.... it's silly; but it's necessary.

DrChandra, I hope you will be able to fold some of this, in some form, back
into the official release, but until you can get time, I've put the awjni with
my mods up in the parent directory.

Comments are more than welcome!

I appreciate any efforts made. Getting the time together to actually "fold
in" the changes from various sources is somewhat difficult for me. I
apologize for that. Hey, at least it's open source. :)

You got that Right! Thanks for making the effort.

BTW, I forgot to mention that the event model I used assumes the same
JNIEnv for any events called by the SDK. That means that it all has
to be done in the same thread :-( When we do get around to implementing
callbacks and multiple instances, we'll have to worry about multi-threading.

It wasn't obvious to me how to handle it, since the JNI call NewGlobalRef
didn't like it when I tried to make a global reference out of the JNIEnv.
