'Ctrl'

If the enums were given specific values, it was my guess that at some point
in the program a comparison to, or usage of those specific values would take
place. Makes sense?

Thus I surmized that there must be more than one occurance of the term 'Ctl'
within the source files, so I went looking for this. I only found the one
occurance, and this got me wondering if it was an exception to a norm. Hey
maybe the rest of them or even just some of them are used in some
comparison.

So I did a grep search on '\(....\)' to find all single quoted four-letter
blocks. The only code (besides comments) that came back were the
enumerations themselves. (www.textpad.com, nice notepad replacement)

Thus far, it seems that my guess may be in error; perhaps those values
aren't used anywhere else?
