     The initialize methods ensure that whenever an object is created,
     the slots will be filled with the proper values.

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_d_f_M_o_d_e_l" The initialize method will ensure that the
          slots of the dfModel object are properly filled.  In
          particular, the initialize method will ensure that the
          virtualData slot is filled with a data frame that consists of
          columns referring to the default view data (now there are 4
          columns referring to color, pch, highlit, and hide).  The
          virtualData slot will ensure that all views of this model
          will be linked. 

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_s_P_l_o_t_V_i_e_w" The initialize method will not only create
          the view object, but it will also create the Gtk window and
          drawing area that the view will be shown in.  So the
          initialize method creates both the sPlotView object and the
          scatterplot. 

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_s_p_r_e_a_d_V_i_e_w" The initialize method will not only create
          the view object, but it will also create the Gtk window and
          spreadsheet that the view will be shown in.  So the
          initialize method creates both the spreadView object and the
          spreadsheet. 

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_g_U_p_d_a_t_e_V_i_e_w_M_e_s_s_a_g_e" The initialize method will create
          the gUpdateViewMessage object. 

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_g_U_p_d_a_t_e_D_a_t_a_M_e_s_s_a_g_e" The initialize method will create
          the gUpdateDataMessage object. 

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_g_A_d_d_D_a_t_a_M_e_s_s_a_g_e" The initialize method will create the
          gAddDataMessage object. 

     ._O_b_j_e_c_t = "_g_A_d_d_V_i_e_w_M_e_s_s_a_g_e" The initialize method will create the
          gAddViewMessage object.
