DELPHI component TCMBtn is a button like in MS Internet Explorer 3.0.
Why just another Internet Explorer button component? I've examined three existing
versions, but none of them met my requirements. So I created this component with
the following main advantages:

  - inherited property Caption (is therefore automatically supplied
    at design time with CMBtn1, CMBtn2 and so on)
  - caption can contain an ampersand ("&") followed by accelerator char
  - WordWrap property for Caption
  - automatic cutting of Caption with trailing '...' if needed
  - HelpContext property
  - PopupMenu property with selectable mouse button (left like in
    Internet Explorer or right like in other DELPHI components)
  - no problems when calling windows help at OnClick event
  - no problems when help window is active and mouse leaves button
  - can be positioned on TPanel
  - ALT F4 (to close window) works
  - button layout control as known from TBitBtn
  - uses three glyphs for the three possible states
    1. enabled with mouse over button
    2. disabled (with or without mouse)
    3. enabled without mouse
    You can assign a single glyph bitmap to the glyph property, the two additional
    glyphs are created *AND* stored automatically! You can save the created 3-glyph-
    bitmap and edit it!
