All Implemented Interfaces:

An pref handler looks after any available pref for a GUI application. This means providing access to a gui to allow users to update pref. These must then be stored somehow. This could either be through the new Java 1.4 Preferences API, or some custom method. This implementation makes use of java Preferences.
