class Fox::FXArrowButton

Button with an arrow; the arrow can point in any direction. When clicked, the arrow button sends a SEL_COMMAND to its target. When ARROW_REPEAT is passed, the arrow button sends a SEL_COMMAND repeatedly while the button is pressed. The option ARROW_AUTO together with ARROW_REPEAT makes the arrow button work in repeat mode simply by hovering the cursor over it.
