[Opensvgviewer-general] Refactoring the code...

[<ro...@ne...>]

We have started refactoring the code of Open SVG Viewer.

Until now the code has come down from approximately 13000 lines to 10000. In some .svg files, the used memory has decreased by 50%. The performance as gone up sharply. Although we haven't done extensive tests, the program is now much more responsive. Test it.

The objective for this phase is only to clean the code. Parsing is going to be moved to a Parser class, the user interface is going to be cleaned up  and improved (specially the red). The code shows up the changes. (Paulo: The graphics code is very different, now. Fetch the changes from the CVS and look at it. --Miguel ?ngelo)

As the code base is changing rapidly, and will be, for the next week or so, we ask you, the other developers, to 'cvs update' frequently, if you want to make changes. (Maybe you don't want to, for some time, until this settles down.)
